[Numpy-discussion] Compiling for free on Windows32

[Fadhley Salim]

Chuck, 
 
I'm not all that familiar with the bug reporting process but if you were
to point me to the relevant bug tracker I'd be delighted to file an
issue. If I could get somebody to fix this upstream I'd be so happy!
 
Thanks!
 
Sal

	Thomasm,
	
	What want is the current latest Numpy as a win32 .egg file for
Python
	2.4.4. I'm not bothered how I get there. We've been able to
compile
	numpy 1.1.1 on visual studio 2003 with no problems at all. I've
not yet
	been able to get anything newer to work.
	
	At the moment I'm trying to build using the setupegg.py file
which comes
	with the Numpy 1.3.0 distribution. After about 5 minutes of
compiling it

Ah yes. That looks to be from the documentation merge in r5610. It's a
bug that shows up in Microsoft compilers because they can't handle long
strings. You should file a ticket, it needs to be fixed. As a quick
(it's all relative) workaround, you could break up the long strings in
the mtrand.c file into string per line and use line continuations.

Chuck
