I have significantly hacked up David Ascher's compile.py script to be able to generate nmake compatible makefiles from Setup or Setup.in files. So why am I telling all the Zopsters about it? Well becuase I have also modified the build scripts in the Zope 1.9.0 source distribution to use this compile.py script giving the ability to build everything for Win32 with just the w_pcgi.py or wo_pcgi.py scripts just like on unix. The compile.py and modified Zope files are attached. Just unzip in the top Zope source directory and you're set to run w_pcgi.py. This assumes that python 1.5.1 is installed, VC50 or VC60 is installed, python.exe, nmake.exe, cl.exe, and link.exe are accessible on the PATH, and that appropriate environment variables are set for the tools. -- Robin Dunn robin@AllDunn.com http://AllDunn.com/robin/ Try http://AllDunn.com/laughworks/ for a good laugh.
