windows python build

[Hugo Shi-2]

Can anyone help?  I'm trying to build the python modules for quantlib.  Thanks in advanced.  Obviously something wierd is happening with the paths, I just don't know why this would be the case.



I've downloaded quantlib source, and built it in visual studio.  I've installed boost as well. 

I've set QL_DIR to c:\Lib\QuantLib-SWIG-0.9.9\
I've set BOOST_DIR t- c:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_39\


C:\lib\QuantLib-SWIG-0.9.9\Python>python.exe setup.py build

Yes, the spaces in the paths are not properly escaped and the compiler
splits them.  I'd try avoiding paths with spaces altogether.  What seems
to work for me is:

- install Boost in, say,  c:\boost\boost_1_39.
- don't set BOOST_DIR, since the setup script is not going to use it.
  Instead, use:

set INCLUDE=c:\boost\boost_1_39
python setup.py build

Hope this helps,
        Luigi
