Note that MinGW32 is a tested path for building (free) C extensions. I don't know if anyone has a tested way of using lcc.
Yes, very interesting
I can already conclude that either I don't know how to use lcc
or it doesn't suit my needs ..
in both case I have to quickly get rid of it .. before I throw the computer through the window ..
I plan to first test the cygwin's gcc compiler before goign to MinGW32
With MinGW32, your build step will be the delightfully easy:
python setup.py build --compiler=mingw32
