    compiling mysql-python for python 2.3 on windows

    Hello,

    I need mysql-python for python 2.3 on windows. I downloaded the source and
    tried to build it myself, but I get linker errors:

    mysqlclient.lib (password.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
    __ftol2

    The problem seems to be, that the mysql lib is build with VC7, but distutils
    tries to compile with VC6 (which are both on my machine). Can I force
    distutils to use VC7? Or has somebody prebuild binaries for windows? Or has
    somebody another hint on how to get it working on windows? I have also mingw
    3.2 installed, if it would be helpfull!?

    regards,
    Achim
