[Numpy-discussion] Building on WinXP 64-bit, Intel Compilers

Tue Jan 27 20:05:07 EST 2009

   Hi ~

   I'm trying to build numpy (hopefully eventually scipy with the same
setup) with the Intel compilers (and Intel MKL) on the WinXP 64-bit
platform. Finding / linking to the Intel MKL seems to be successful (see
below) but I have an issue with the settings defined somewhere in the
various setup scripts (can't find where). Per the output below, the Intel
compilers on Windows are looking for ".obj" object files rather than the
Linux-style ".o" files. I'd also like to get rid of the /L and -L flags (no
longer supported in Intel C++ v. 11.0 it seems) but this just throws a
warning and does not seem to cause any problems. Can anyone point me to the
python file(s) I need to edit to modify the .o object file setting to .obj?
(The file "_configtest.obj" is created.) Once operational, I'll pass along
all of my config info for anyone else building in this environment.

   Thanks!
   ~Mike C.

Output from build:

>>python setup.py config --compiler=intel --fcompiler=intelem install
