Yes, I imagine if there was a 64 bit installer it would not work, since the OSGeo4W and QGIS distribution for Windows is all 32bit.

For anyone else doing it, I forgot to mention that it only works if you use an installer built for the same version of Python that QGIS uses i.e. an installer for Python 2.6 or 3 will not work with Python 2.5. and on the Shapely site, there's no Win32 installer for 64 bit matched to python 2.5. So I used the 32 bit installer on my Win7 64 machine, and it went OK.

You need to put the shapely folder (from inside PURELIB) in e.g. C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python25\Lib\site-packages\, and the geos.dll and libgeos-3-2-2.dll in I think C:\OSGeo4W\bin, although instead of installing those I seem to have got it working by editing C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python25\Lib\site-packages\shapely\geos.py to use the lib from OSGeo4W instead (C:\OSGeo4W\bin\geos_c.dll). Hi Alister: Your trick to unzip and manually place shapely 1.2 into the python\site_packages\ dir worked fine. Many thanks. -- Micha This mail was received via Mail-SeCure System.
