Decompyle will not Compile.

[eternl_knight]

Ironically enough - the decompyle module will not compile on my
machine. I am using Python 2.2 and MSVC7 (i.e. .NET). However it tells
me there is an undefined external as follows:

"marshal_22_for_20.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
initdecompyle/marshal_20"

I am writing code for Poser 6 (which has not as yet updated to the
latest Python) and have just lost a substantial chunk of code - part of
which being an algorithm I have been tweaking for a couple of weeks
now. As such, getting even part of the PYC to decompile would be a
great help.

Thanks,

Apparently this site will let you get your code back, though for a fee.
Not sure you were aware of it.

Yeah, I know the site. In fact, his service is based off of a
deriviative of the code I am trying to compile. Thanks though.

What I don't understand is the fact that I cannot locate either
"initdecompyle" or "marshal_20" in the source code, yet it appears to
compile on FreeBSD & Linux (given the fact that there are binary
packages for those platforms).
