[issue26727] ctypes.util.find_msvcrt() does not work in python 3.5.1

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower added the comment:

See issue23606.

Not only is your expectation incorrect, you wouldn't get sensible behavior if it was. You should generally avoid using this function, and use the msvcrt module or ctypes.cdll.msvcrt (if you don't need to interoperate with CPython itself).

----------
resolution:  -> duplicate
status: open -> closed
superseder:  -> ctypes.util.find_library("c") no longer makes sense
