# include <basetsd.h> ^^^^^^^^^
this header (as the only one #included here) belongs to Platform SDK. It should be in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\include" . It certainly belongs to Microsoft Windows Core SDK - April 2005 edition. Could you pls. check this on your computer? If you have this file, did you added the directory to INCLUDE? To which one? If you have VC80_ROOT set, you also need to have VS80COMNTOOLS set, as it is used by %VC80_ROOT%\vcvarsall.bat , and the Platform SDK\include directory should be *manually* added to %VS80COMNTOOLS%vsvars32.bat If you have MSVCDir set, then you just need to have this directory in your INCLUDE .
Unfortunately the line above is causing this to break with Visual Studio 8 Express edition. That header doesn't exist after installing the Core Windows part of the PSDK.
I tested it on Visual C++ 2005 Express with Platform SDK April 2005 edition.
How did you come up with this list?
I called vc8 compiler with /P option on libs\python\src\numeric.cpp to see preprocessor output. I also added #error directive in boost\python\detail\wrap_python.hpp just after # define _DEBUG to cut irrelevant output. Then I filtered all headers ("#line 1" in preprocessor output) that are not from boost nor python. B.
