Hi,

yeah it definitely does build for x64. That's what I use mostly, in fact.

I think the 64 bit compilers don't come as part of visual studio express.
You can get them as part of the windows sdk download from msdn though. You
might struggle to get it to work with distutils/setup tools as they expect
the compiler to be installed as part of visual studio. What you'll need to
do is start a prompt with all the compiler stuff setup and set the env var
DISTUTILS_USE_SDK=1 to tell distutils to look at the current environment
for the compiler instead of the registry.

cheers,
Tony

Hey Tony,
Thanks for your fast reply.
Your answer got setupwin.py to build for me, but only with Python 3.4
32-bit.
File "C:\Python341\Lib\distutils\msvc9compiler.py", line 287, in
query_vcvarsall
raise ValueError(str(list(result.keys())))
I am assuming that this is a compiler error because it doesn't have a
64-bit compiling function. I used the same compiler at the 32-bit build
with was Visual C++ 2010 Express. And I also tried Visual Studio 2012
Express too. (Making sure to adjust my environment path accordingly.)
I just want to confirm that this is indeed a compiler issue and doesn't
have to do with the pythonnet code itself.
Thanks,
Beckett

Hi,
use setupwin.py instead of setup.py in the renshawbay repo to build it.
cheers,

Hello all,
I am trying to get pythonnet to build with python 3.4. I am on a

Windows 7

64-bit machine and specifically want to use Python 3.4.1.
Of course the official repository on github does not support python 3.4
yet.
I've tried this fork here: https://github.com/renshawbay/pythonnet
ValueError: close_fds is not supported on Windows platforms if you
redirect stdin/stdout/stderr
Also, checked out http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pythonnet

for

a Windows precompiled binary, but they only have the python 3.3 version
there.
Any other ideas or ways I could use pythonnet with Python 3.4?
Beckett
