Hi Folks,
Searched the archives, but I can only find mention of db.h problems
relating to Linux.
I've downloaded the source for 2.5.2 and am trying to compile it in
Visual Studio 6 (SP6). The error reports read:
--------------------Configuration: _bsddb - Win32
Debug--------------------
Compiling...
_bsddb.c
C:\Documents and Settings\Tim\My Documents\Python-2.5.2\Modules
\_bsddb.c(90) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'db.h':
No such file or directory
Error executing cl.exe.
_bsddb_d.pyd - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
Any pointers? A prerequisite that I might be missing? The source is
the Python-2.5.2.tar.gz from the Python.org site.
Thanks for any help,
Tim
