[SciPy-user] f2py and xmingw

[Flavio Coelho]

Hi,

I am trying to compile a Fortran extension module for windows using Scipy.

I want to know if it is possible to do this with xmingw (from my Gentoo
Linux Box)

Under Linux I can automate the generation of binary packages with
setup.pybdist (and a properly written
setup.py)

what is the recomended way to generate binary packages(with fortran
extensions) for windows?

I have tried to run f2y specifying the crosscompilers from xmingw but it
failed:

command line:

f2py -c --compiler=/opt/xmingw/bin/i386-mingw32msvc-gcc
--f77exec=opt/xmingw/bin/i386-mingw32msvc-g77 -m flib flib.f

Error:

error: don't know how to compile C/C++ code on platform 'posix' with
'/opt/xmingw/bin/i386-mingw32msvc-gcc' compiler
It looks like I may be missing some compiler flags... Since my experience
with compiled languages is somewhat limited, I will  gladly accept any
suggestions.

thanks,
