Stefan Krah <stefan-use...@bytereef.org> added the comment: I think we have two issues here:
First, the default install of VS Express does not support 64-bit tools, so distutils cannot work with a 64-bit Python install. I verified that it _does_ work with a 32-bit Python install. Second, it is possible to install 64-bit tools from the SDK (See:http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/en/data/1-6IJJ3L/index.html?solution=1-6IJJ3L), but then some paths are broken in the vcvarsall.bat script: The script is looking for bin\amd64\vcvarsamd64.bat, the actual path is bin\vcvarsamd64.bat. The attached diff solves the problem for me, but someone should verify that the paths are indeed broken when doing the SDK install as described above. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file15572/vcvars.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7511> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
