New submission from Mark: I'd like to build a C++ extension for Python. I took a simple C file from a tutorial and wrote the setup.py file. But when I run the command: python setup.py build_ext --inplace
I get the following error: error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat This file is located in "c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\vc\vcvarsall.bat" but even when I run it and set all environment variables, python.exe still tries to find it. I added this path to the PATH but it didn't solve the issue. ---------- components: Distutils messages: 268612 nosy: Mark53, dstufft, eric.araujo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Error when building Python extension type: compile error versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27324> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
