[Gdal-dev] Proposal for Unified Windows Binaries

[Iva Lucena]

Mateusz, Tamas,

> against GDAL built with Visual C++ 8.0, using official Python 2.4
binaries.

When you say official 2.4 binaries you mean downloaded from python.org:
http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.4.4/ ?

That is great, I almost moving back to VS 2003 just because I can't deliver
GDAL 1.4.1 with Python for people that need it, in the same way I as used to
do with GDAL 1.3.2 in an InnoSetup installation.

Cheers,

Ivan

Christopher,

Yes, you're right and that's a very strong argument.
Although, AFAIK recently Tamas has managed to run autotest scripts
against GDAL built with Visual C++ 8.0, using official Python 2.4 binaries.
