The latest 1_32_0 (downloaded today - 2004-11-15 at around 13:30 PST/-0800) failed to build the python libs because of "python22.lib" references in a link. I have python 2.3 installed, and have the python environment variables set like this: PYTHON_ROOT=C:\python23 PYTHIN_VERSION=2.3 PYTHON_LIB_PATH=C:\Python23\libs My WinXP system is brand newly set up (from major crash), so there aren't any strange things going on (i.e. no other python's in path, etc.). I have cygwin installed, but none of the cygwin stuff is in my path (or any other environment variables for that matter), so I'm confident that isn't a problem. Besides, it also has python 2.3, not 2.2. I actually used vsvars32.bat to get the build environment for boost. Everything else (that wasn't dependant on boost python) build fine. Anybody know anything about this? (Be sure to reply-all if you reply to this, unless you don't mind long delays for a response). --> Russ
