[wxPython] ws2_32.dll / delayed DLL loading

I checked DLL dependencies in wx21_15.dll and it appers that one dll
nammed ws2_32.dll is missing on my system. I don't think this dll is a
part of MS Windows.
What is this dll ? Where to get it ?

Many thanks

Sincerely

Fred

It's the Winsock 2.0. Please see this message for where to get it and
others:

If we could make the Winsock part of wxPython use a form of late binding
called Delay-Load. Not only to apps linked this way start up faster, they
make distribution of the app to other Windows machines less of a pain. I
believe their is a link-time option in the latest Visual C++ that automates
the "Delay Loading" process. However, hand coding the delay-loads would
allow you to stub out the functionality so that if the DLL was not present,
the application would continue to run and merely be unable to load from http
directly.

Starting with the 2.1.15 interim releases the wx dll is linked with the
delay loading flags.
