For visual studio 2010, there is a different version of python. You can download this file (Python-2.6.6-vs2010) from the archive.
If you want to download a new version of python from the svn and use it for 2010 later. You can do the following steps:
- Open the solution file (python.sln) using vs2010
- It will show you Conversion Wizard. Using that Wizard convert the file.
- Open the pyproject.props file. In that file, put a semicolon between the lib files for tcltkLib, tcltkLibDebug, tcltk64Lib, tcltk64LibDebug.
<tcltkLib>$(tcltkDir)\lib\tcl84.lib ; $(tcltkDir)\lib\tk84.lib</tcltkLib> <tcltkLibDebug>$(tcltkDir)\lib\tcl84g.lib ; $(tcltkDir)\lib\tk84g.lib</tcltkLibDebug> <tcltk64Lib>$(tcltk64Dir)\lib\tcl84.lib ; $(tcltk64Dir)\lib\tk84.lib</tcltk64Lib> <tcltk64LibDebug>$(tcltk64Dir)\lib\tcl84g.lib ; $(tcltk64Dir)\lib\tk84g.lib</tcltk64LibDebug>
External_python_win.cmake is updated for building python in vs2010. MSBuild commands for VS2010 are used for building python. For example, in VS2008, the build command was
set(ep_command_args /build ${python_configuration} /project python)
For VS2010, this is changed to
set(ep_command_args /p:configuration=${python_build_type} /p:platform=${python_platform} /t:python)
