I'm looking at building/testing reportlab with appveyor, but need some assistance building the C extensions in particular freetype. I looked at the code for pillow in https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/tree/master/winbuild along with https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/blob/master/appveyor.yml but I'm not sure I really understand it terribly well. In particular does appveyor support 3.5 & 3.6? The config.py compilers list seems to refer to versions 7.0 and 7.1, but that doesn't seem to be the visualc++ version at all. Looking at the appveyor.yml do people really reveal their ftp or s3 tokens? Or is it more reasonable to upload to a github acccount. -puzzled-ly yrs- Robin Becker

If it's like Travis, any values under 'secure:' are encrypted with a project-specific key generated by the CI service, so you can have them in appveyor.yml without revealing them to anyone other than Appveyor. Thomas

Yes. Here's how zope.interface builds binary wheels containing C extension modules for all supported Python versions and uploads them to PyPI: https://github.com/zopefoundation/zope.interface/blob/master/appveyor.yml I like how it's short and simple, with only one strange thing I don't understand (the echo > vcvars64.bat thing).

I think that's patching round the fact that the MS batch files aren't 100% consistent, and you need the SDK compilers for 64-bit builds on one of the earlier Visual Studio free versions. Sorry I can't recall the details, but it's basically that. But I agree, that looks like an impressively simple Appveyor setup. I'll have to steal it :-) Paul
