I am new to python (almost 4 months) and Cython (1 week). I use Vista and
previous week I tried to use Cython and I had the same problem about
"vcvarsall.bat". By trial and error Now I can compile scripts with Cython.
What I did is,
I first installed Microsoft Virtual C++ 2008 Express Edition (VC++)
There is a "vcvarsall.bat" file under the installation directory of VC++
I copied the "vcvarsall.bat" file under "C:\Python26\Scripts" (not required,
you can include it with, sys.path.append("path-to-the-file"))
Then everything worked great :)
Then, since I am a curious guy, I tried the use ".h" files of VC++ under
include folder (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\include)
I followed the instructions on the wiki page of Cython and Now I can use
those very easily. (with, cdef extern from "math.h", etc)
It is a really good practice to use Cython and see everything works
perfectly for me, who is just a beginner.
