[visionegg] Re: visionegg 0.9.4

Hi Joyca,

Because you're installing from the source, the setup.py script is trying to build the C extensions that the Vision Egg uses. However, they're not essential. "cl.exe" is the Microsoft Visual Studio C compiler. You have 3 options:

1) Change "skip_c_compilation" in the setup.py script to 1

2) Install Microsoft Visual Studio C Compiler and run the "VCVARS.BAT" file to get cl.exe on your path.

3) Install the MinGW C compiler. (This is gcc ported to Windows, released under GNU GPL.)

Hi Andrew,
When trying to install the Visionegg 0.9.4 prerelease, I get the following error message:
************************************************************
error:command 'cl.exe' failed: No such file or directory.

How can I install the prerelease on windows 2000?
 
Thank you!
