[Neuroimaging] [dipy] [google hangout] Issues trying to install dipy

Wed Jun 22 10:57:52 EDT 2016

Hi all,

Just wanted to give you a quick feedback about the meeting we had with Jon
to try and install DIPY for development work in Windows 10 (64bit) using an
Anaconda installation.

What we found is that if you are using recent Anaconda in Windows you do
not need to install mingw or libpython (with conda). All you need after or
before installing Anaconda is to install one of the free versions (or not)
of the Visual C++ compiler (e.g. community edition). After that then cython
will find the correct compiler and build the shared objects with no problem.
So, in summary the steps are:
1. Install Anaconda for your windows version.
2. Install Visual C++ (or Studio) community edition (or other).
3. pip install nibabel
4. conda install vtk
5. cd dipy;
6. python setup.py develop (or python setup.py build_ext --inplace)

I hope this helps. We need to update our installation page! Cygwin/mingw is
no more for anaconda users. We should also check what happens with Openmp
when Visual C++ is used.

Many thanks to Jon for reporting the problem.

Best regards,
Eleftherios
