I don't know about Win-64, but on Win32, here's how I did it. I first installed MinGW as per this: First, download and install, from ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/gnu/mingw/, the three installers: MinGW-5.1.3.exe, MSYS-1.0.10.exe, and msysDTK-1.0.1.exe (you'll have to look for it in the list of downloads). Run them in that order. When the MinGW installer asks, go for a FULL install, not the default MINIMAL one. The MSYS installer will pop up a CMD.EXE window that will ask you if you want to "normalize" the install. Say "yes", and when it asks where the MinGW install is, say "c:/MinGW". After it finishes with the CMD.EXE window, it will open some RTF documents; just close them and continue on to install msysDTK-1.0.1.exe. Once you have installed all three, you will have a Start folder called MinGW, and in it another folder called "MSYS", and in it a program called "msys". Select that program and run it; it will start up an rxvt window running a Bourne shell. This gives you a shell, make, and compilers that are compatible with the Visual C++ compilers. You can then build JCC and PyLucene. The only trick is building JCC -- you have to do it in two steps: python setup.py build --compiler=mingw32 python setup.py install --skip-build Then build and install PyLucene using its Makefile (you'll have to edit the Makefile to have the right values for the libraries and compiler settings).
