Here is the sequence I use to get python-qpid-proton on windows * Install Visual Studio 2019 (Community Edition) select the python workload at least. In my installation that puts a version of Python 3 in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Shared\Python37_64\python.exe" [I use Powershell] I then create a virtual environment to help contain what I'm doing: > & 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Shared\Python37_64\python.exe' -m venv py3-proton For convenience activate the virtual environment: > .\py3-proton\Scripts\Activate.ps1 Now you should be able to simply install python-qpid-proton with pip: > pip install python-qpid-proton Test: > python Python 3.7.5 (tags/v3.7.5:5c02a39a0b, Oct 15 2019, 00:11:34) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import proton >>> proton <module 'proton' from 'C:\\Users\\andrew\\py3-proton\\lib\\site- packages\\proton\\__init__.py'> >>> proton.VERSION (0, 31, 0) >>> Hope this helps. I will try to upload some wheels to pypi for the next release so this should make the process alittle faster, but currently there are only source packages available for 0.31.0.
