Cygwin is a free and open-source Unix-like environment and command-line interface for Microsoft Windows. There is an on-going effort to support Cygwin in Python. I create this meta-issue to track other Cygwin sub-issues.
To install Cygwin on Windows and build CPython in Cygwin, you can use these commands:
- Download https://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe
- Run setup-x86_64.exe : select
gcc-core, make, libffi-devel, libssl-devel and zlib-devel packages (I also installed vim, my favorite text editor 😁).
- Start Cygwin shell (icon on the desktop).
- Type:
git config --global core.autocrlf input -- I had issues with newlines in the ./configure script without that.
- Run
git clone https://github.com/python/cpython/ --depth=1
- Type:
cd cpython
- Type:
./configure --with-pydebug
- Type:
make -j8
