Hi all, So with the new build system it is now possible to build PyViennaCL on Windows. I only have Windows in a virtual machine, so it would be good to know if it works on hardware with a proper OpenCL implementation. If any of you are interested, read on!
You'd need to grab the sources using git from GitHub[1], and have Python installed. I've tested the build only with Python 2.7 (not Python 3), and so you'll need the Windows SDK for Windows 7 with .NET 3.5[2], since that contains the compiler with which Python 2.7 is built. You'll also need NumPy, which you can download from [3]. Then, having got those installed, you'll need to follow the instructions in README.rst. Note that you'll probably need to specify `--cl-lib-dir=SOME-PATH` as an option to configure.py, or turn off OpenCL using `--no-use-opencl`. Then just try 'python setup.py build' and 'python setup.py install' to build and install PyViennaCL. To test out PyViennaCL, try running one of the scripts under tests/ or examples/ in the source tree.
