[python-win32] building pywin32 for python 2.6...

[Raymond Stewart]

I am having a hard time building Mark Hammond’s pywin32 extension with python 2.6.1. I followed the readme and used the setup.py. I have the latest Windows SDK installed, and the Direct X SDK installed as well. I am building on Vista. I have both Python 2.5 and 2.6 installed as well as VC2003, VC2005, and VC2008. I changes the path statement to point at \python26. Not sure what else I need to do. The docs are pretty thin on building configurations.

   

Here is what I am getting…

   

C:\Users\raymond.stewart\Desktop\pywin32-212>setup.py -q  build

Building pywin32 2.5.212.0

PyACL.cpp

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Include\specstrings.h(9) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'sal.h': No such file or directory error: command '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\bin\cl.exe"' failed with exit status 2
