Hello list, I am building svn 1.8.13 (to go with httpd 2.4.16) on a windows 7 system using Visual Studio 2008 Pro.
If I try to use the latest SWIG 3.0.7 to build the python bindings then I get no PYDs and lots of errors, e.g.: Generating ..\..\..\subversion\bindings\swig\python\core.c d:\svn\src\subversion\bindings\swig\core.i(792) : Error: Unknown SWIG preprocessor directive: The (if this is a block of target language code, delimit it with %{ and %}) d:\svn\src\subversion\bindings\swig\core.i(793) : Error: Unknown SWIG preprocessor directive: reference (if this is a block of target language code, delimit it with %{ and %}) d:\svn\src\subversion\bindings\swig\core.i(794) : Error: Unknown SWIG preprocessor directive: references (if this is a block of target language code, delimit it with %{ and %}) I tried to search for this issue but got no hits, so I reverted to SWIG 3.0.2 (used for my last successful build) and I have bindings. Sorry I have not had much time to investigate. Just hoping to help if someone else hits the same issue. Note that both 3.0.2 and 3.0.7 report a warning about $(SWIG_CPPFLAGS) not being found (amongst lots of others). ~ Mark C
