If you want to go this route, it will make your life much easier. But I don't have a fully passing test suite yet, there are still about 30 failing tests.

If you're not trying to build your own Python 3.5, then check to make sure your PYTHONPATH is not set to anything. Mixed environments could be a problem. If that doesn't fix it, then debugging into it a little bit could help. For example, try running C:\Python35\python_d.exe and then typing "import _ctypes". It should work. If you're doing a release build then try making sure that finish_swig is running python.exe, and if you're doing a debug build then try making sure that finish_swig is running python_d.exe. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b>For Python 2.7</b><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>1) You must <b>not </b>be using Visual Studio 2015.
