*** Creating Python Extensions Using Borland's Free Compiler ***

I am pleased to announce a set of step-by-step instructions and examples to
create extensions using the free Borland Command Line Compiler.

ABSTRACT

This paper describes the method used to create Python Extensions using the
Borland 5.5 C++ Compiler (BCC). This command line compiler is available
free from http://www.borland.com/bcppbuilder/freecompiler/. I describe the
steps that are necessary to produce the extension from the C source code
and how to set up the associated files for the compiler and linker. These
extensions work with the standard Windows distribution of Python. The
process used to produce the extension is very easy and consists of running
a simple batch file that I provide as part of this package. I also have
some examples and a short reference section at the end of this paper that
may be helpful.
