Phoenix Builds on Win32

Hi all,

I"m teaching a Python class, and we’re using py3 – so I thought I"d give Phoenix a try for wxPython. So far so good, but:

One of my students got a missing dll error with the win32 build. He wasn’t up to running DependencyWalker, but he did install the MS 2015 complier, community edition – and now it works fine.

So I suspect there is a VS runtime dll missing.

Others with win64 had no trouble – maybe they already had the runtime dll, or maybe the win64 build includes it…

(I dont’ have a Windows box to try it out on at the moment…)

It's probably msvcp140.dll.

Thanks, that probably is it.

Yes, it should be in the wheel – though it’ll be in a lot of wheels, so it would be better if it were shipped with the python runtime. EVen though, apparently, it isn’t actually used by Python itself.

I’ll post to python-dev about this

Just for information : I had the same problem (tested for both 32 and 64

bits), and solved it by installing the official Ms VS14 runtime.
But the error wasn't very explicit : it was something saying that wxWidgets
core dll wasn't found, not that it was a dependancy problem.

Robin has just updated build.py, so the DLL should be included in the next snapshots.
