OK it seems that the free 7.1 compiler is no longer. They now have a
free version of Visual Studio 2005 instead. Looks like I need to just
put in a req for VS 2003 and be done with it.

Subject: [wxPython-dev] Building wxPython extension
Hey All,
I downloaded the platform SDK and managed then to build the wxWidgets
DLL's including my new class. I'm now trying to build the wxPython
extension. I created a .i file for my class and included it in the
build. I built a patched SWIG and that portion of the build process
goes fine. However, after that I get a message saying that I need the
.NET SDK before I can build any extension modules. After looking around
on the internet it seems that extensions for Python 2.4 must be built
using the Visual Studio 2003 compiler (which I saw I can get for free)
since python itself uses this version of the compiler (and hence the
newer msvcrt71.dll).
My question is:
Is it OK to build wxWidgets with VC 6.0 and then build the wxPython
extension with the VC 7.1 compiler or should I go back and figure out
how to build wxWidgets with the newer compiler?
