Will pymssql 2.0 compile with Python 2.4.3

[GoogleCodeExporter]

My problem is this.  I have Python 2.4.3 loaded on my server.  I have installed 
pymssql 1.0.2.  I'm going from Linux to a microsoft database. 

I'm seeing no errors when I connect so I assume that's OK.  (I was getting 
connection errors when I first loaded pymssql.)  When I run a SELECT query, I 
get no data back.  I was looking over the forums and there seemed to be a bug 
associated with this issue previously.  

I downloaded the pymssql-2.0.0b1-dev-20111019 tar file and in the README file 
it states I need python-dev >= 2.5.   

My question is this: Is there a pymssql release that will work with Python 
2.4.3 that does not have this data problem?  Has anyone tried pymssql 2.0.0 
with Python 2.4.3?

Randy, should we close this, because Python 2.4 is too old to support?

Yes.  There was a discussion on the mailing list some time ago (1-2 years)
where we discussed what versions of python we were going to support.  I
believe we chose 2.6+.

I will say that if we can target Python 2.5, without too much additional 
effort, that we may consider it.  But IMO 2.4 is out of the question.

Closing.
