-=================================================

-

-(For historic reasons this uses the filename "vc40"; it has been tested

-most recently with VC 4.2.  See ../PCbuild for VC 5.x.)

-

-NOTE: VC 4.2 support is eroding, as I no longer have a VC 4.2

-installation.  Some newer files need to be added to the project.

-

-The distributed Makefile is vc40.mak.  This file is distributed with

-CRLF line separators, otherwise Developer Studio won't like it.  It

-will NOT work from this PC directory.  To use it, first copy it to the

-Python distribution directory, e.g. with this command:

-    copy vc40.mak ..

-To convert the Makefile into a project file, start Developer Studio,

-choose Open Workspace, change the file name pattern to *.mak, find and

-select the file vc40.mak, and click OK.  Developer Studio will create

-additional project files vc40.ncb and vc40.mdp when you use the

-project.  The project contains six targets, which should be built in

-this order:

-

-python15    The Python core as a DLL, named python15.dll.

-

-python      The Python main program, named python.exe.  This should

-            work as a console program under Windows 95 or NT, as well

-            as under Windows 3.1(1) when using win32s.  It uses

-            python15.dll.

-

-_tkinter    The optional _tkinter extension, _tkinter.dll; see below.

-

-All end products of the compilation are placed in the subdirectory

-vc40 (which Developer Studio creates); object files are placed in

-vc40/tmp.  There are no separate Release and Debug project variants.

-Note that the python and _tkinter projects require that the

-python15.lib file exists in the vc40 subdirectory before they can be

-built.

-*** How to build the _tkinter extension ***

-

-This assumes that you have installed the Tcl/Tk binary distribution for

-Windows 95/NT with version numbers 7.5p1/4.1p1, in the default

-installation location (C:\tcl).  (Ftp to ftp.sunlabs.com in /pub/tcl,

-file win41p1.exe.)  You must also fetch and unpack the zip file

-vclibs41.zip which contains the files tcl75.lib and tk41.lib, and place

-those files in the PC subdirectory.  In order to use _tkinter, the

-Tkinter.py module must be on PYTHONPATH.  It is found in the

-Lib\tkinter subdirectory.
