Compilation problems and failing tests?

[Sylvain Prat]

Hello,

I encounter many problems when trying to compile gevent on windows and
linux. Note that I want to work on the code so I don't want a pre-
packaged version of gevent.

First, when trying to compile the latest mercurial version on windows,
I get errors in util.cythonpp.py.atomic_write: on windows (not sure
which compiler is used), os.rename fail to rename if the target file
already exist. I have solved the problem by testing that the file
exist and by removing it if it's the case, but I guess it's not an
"atomic_write" anymore ;)

Then, I get many tests failing when running the test suite, either in
linux (fedora 12) or windows. Here is what I've done so far:

easy_install cython
python setup.py develop
cd greentest/
python testrunner.py

Did I missed something?

Anyone ?

Is there a documentation explaining how to compile gevent that I've missed?

Thanks,

Sylvain
