While trying to build the pywin32 package on Python 3, I get this error:
error: unknown file type '.mc' (from 'win32/src/PerfMon/PyPerfMsgs.mc')
It appears that the Python 2 package patches distutils and handles .mc files via windmc from binutils. Python 3, however, does not.
Sounds like a good idea.
@Alexpux what about this part of the py2 patch
ext_normcase = os.path.normcase(ext)
if ext_normcase in ['.rc','.res']:
ext = ext_normcase
- if ext not in (self.src_extensions + ['.rc','.res']):
+ if ext not in (self.src_extensions + ['.rc', '.res', '.mc']):
raise UnknownFileError, \
"unknown file type '%s' (from '%s')" % \
(ext, src_name)
Is it not needed?
oh forgot about it. Will fix
