Subject: EDK2 build errors with Python 3.9
Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2020 16:15:59 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <MWHPR1101MB2207E46438671D05F17E487395CB0@MWHPR1101MB2207.namprd11.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

Hi,

The array object in Python 3.9 no longer supports fromstring() and tostring() methods. EDK2 BaseTools use these methods, and therefore the EDK2 build fails when using Python 3.9. See the trace below.

Thanks,
Sergey

build.py...
: error C0DE: Tools code failure
