Cannot build quantlib-swig python library

Hello,
I cannot build python.py. It cannot create quantlib_wrap_obj and thus gives the
following error message:

Any idea?
Thanks a lot.

I suspect that the empty include directory specification (-I by itself
without argument) is interfering with the file name to be compiled
argument (/TpQuantLib/quantlib_wrap.cpp).

You should adjust your compilation pre-processor search paths to make
sure this solitary -I doesn't appear and/or copy and paste the command
above removing the solitary -I.

Best,
Bojan

Luigi, I am not out of the woods yet.
I try to have a set-up where from Python, I can access both quantlib and data analysis software (R especially and some python modules like matplotlib).
But I face some deep issues about compatibility:
-the python modules I need have not been yet ported to python2.6 (for windows)
-building a python module with a different version of VC (than the one having built Python) seems to be quite difficult (at least for me).
-I have only VC 9 and no proper VC 7 set-up.

After some efforts, I still cannot have all I need on the same Python version. The sole solution I see is to give up VC 9 and buy VC 7.

Any idea?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Raphael,
Bojan's right---it's considering quantlib_wrap.cpp as an include path
and not as the source file to compile. It's a problem in Python
distutils, and I've seen it happen on Windows when any of the include
directories contains spaces. You can work around it by resetting your
INCLUDE variable; before running setup.py, run the command

set INCLUDE=

(with nothing after the = sign)

It used to be possible to build modules with the gcc compiler included
into MinGW, but it's a long time since I tried it. It was invoked with
something like

python setup.py build --compiler=mingw32

You can try and see whether it still works...
