RE: local windows builds & testing from source

> You don't have to build to test, you can run from source by typing "python
bp.py" on the command line in the src directory. I'd recommend doing this
before you try to build a distribution package.

i can run it and test locally from source (bp.py) without any problems at
all really...  well, there is one minor tick:  i get an exception each time
i connect my vx9800 and bitpim detects it.  this of course is not a problem
to me since my installed bitpim doesn't raise an exception.

> To build a package there are two scripts to run, the first only has to be
run once.
packages/buildmodules.py
Buildrelease/makedist.py

when i try to run packaging/buildmodules.py it complains about tons of
missing .h files, i will look around and see what i can find.  eg: string.h:
No such file or directory.

> You have to install a handful other pieces to get the build to work,
pieces
you don't need to run from the source. I don't know of a list but you can
figure it out from the errors you get and by looking at the source.

thanks for all of your help, i will keep plugging away at it!
