I'm building Glib (from Git) using MSVC. FWIW I use my own MSVC
projects (rather than the supplied ones) although that isn't relevant
here. What's relevant is that, while building libgio, a bunch of python
files get converted to binary equivalents. This is all connected with
gdbus-codegen AFAICR. For example, there's a python source called
"codegen_main.py" which gets converted to "codegen_main.pyc". The build
procedure has been working perfectly for many years.
For reasons unconnected with Glib I needed to upgrade python yesterday
to ver 3.3.5. Since the upgrade, my python binaries now have different
names. For example, the above binary now gets called:-
codegen_main.cpython-33.pyc
I don't know enough about the build process to know whether there might
be any ramifications caused by the name changes. Are the ".pyc" files
just used internally by python itself (in other words, the name isn't
important)? Or could there be other ramifications for my build? I
realise I should be contacting the python team - but I wanted to ask
some advice first to find out if anyone can anticipate any potential
problems from this change? Thanks.
John
