Building Pygr with Visual C++ should work out of the box as long as all of
its dependencies have been met.
-You may need an appropriate Windows installation disc when installing
Visual Studio, as some versions (confirmed with VS2003 Professional)
require the IIS server and its FrontPage extensions, both of them standard
but optional (and not recommended for keeping around unless absolutely
needed) Windows components, to be present before installation can even
begin. Yes, even if you are about NOT to choose anything but C++-related
bits in the installer! Fortunately they can be safely removed after
installation.
+At the beginning of Visual Studio installation you may be informed that
certain Windows components, namely the IIS and its FrontPage Server
extensions, are not installed. Adding these would require having an
appropriate Windows installation disc handy, then again they are not
required in order to build Pygr so you can safely skip this step using an
appropriately-labelled button.
If installing an older version of Visual Studio, don't bother telling it
to look for updates as the final step of installation - it will likely not
find them, even if they're still on microsoft.com. Just finish
installation, then download and run update installers (_e.g._ Visual Studio
2003 Service Pack 1) by hand. At this point it should be safe to click the
Exit button without rolling back the installation.
