Of course... I'll try to be as detailed as I can be... I'll start off by mentioning that I have created and uploaded and archive with a snapshot of everything that I've got so far: http://rapidshare.com/files/154096953/py-64.7z.html
The env. I'm using is: * VS9 (2008) * Python 2.6 for amd 64 (compiled with VS9 by the python.org folks) To compile Numpy I did this: 1. Extract Numpy 1.2 2. Start the Visual Studio 2008 Command prompt 3. Patch "numpy-1.2.0\numpy\core\src\umathmodule.c.src" according to the instructios here: http://projects.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2008-October/037981.htm l http://projects.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2008-October/037994.htm l 4. invoke python setup.py build bdist_wininst 5. Install the resulting installer 6. Run numpy.test()... (You'll need a installed nose unit-test framework, which is in the archive I've attached) For MPL: 1. Extract matplotlib-0.98.3 2. I downloaded the win32_static package so I can see the "recomended" static dependencies and compiled the dependencies as best I could, altering the provided ".sln"/".csproj" files as best I could to compile for x64 (none of them have pre-made x64 "builds") What I compiled out of the win32 packages was: libpng / zlib freetype 3. I restructures the headers / .lib files in a manner similar to how they were with the win32_static package, and placed it in a "win64" directory 4. Changed setupext.py to use "win64" instead of "win32_static" 5. Compiled with python setup.py build bdist_wininst, installed the resulting installer 6. Ran a few tests... That's it. I'm still "missing" on getting the wxPython headers/static libs compiled, but I assume this is not a "critical" part of getting MPL working, but rather required for completeness sake.

I am interested in what compiler you used and what OS you are running. - Charlie On Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 8:23 PM, Dan Shechter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi, I've successfully compiled NumPy for Python 2.6 on Windows x64 (amd64). NumPy seems so pass most of the unit tests, except for a few minor ones where it seems nose (the unit testing harness) seems to have problems with python 2.6. After compiling MPL for 2.6 on x64 (which was a LENGTHY process... phew!) I do get a generally speaking working version but there seem to be quite a few display issues... I have re-occuring cases of "missing data points", for a lack of a better name. Feel free to look at a screenshot: http://img101.imageshack.us/my.php?image=badsubloptswy1.png Is MPL supported on Win x64? I someone working on this? I would be happy to share my NumPy build and MPL dependencies + MPL build with anyone that perhaps knowing a bit more than me about MPL :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
