Don't know how to compile first-stage/PARSE/swig/wrapper.C [Microsoft Visual C Compiler]

[jmamou]

When I try to build it on Windows 7 with Python 3.5 (from anaonda) and swig-3.0.8, I get the error below. Any idea about it?
Thanks!

Just a shot in the dark: maybe it doesn't know what the .C extension means -- see if changing https://github.com/BLLIP/bllip-parser/blob/master/setup.py#L81 to wrapper_path = 'swig/wrapper.cc' helps. https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/distutils/msvccompiler.py#L215 implies that Microsoft compilers might not like .C as a C++ extension). If this is the case, it will unfortunately fail on the other .C files, but let's take it one step at a time.

[jmamou]

Thanks! You are correct on both points.
Modifying the wrapper_path does help.
But after it fails compiling C code.
Note that according to https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/032xwy55.aspx the /Tc option of cl.exe specifies that filename is a C source file, even if it does not have a .c extension.
Any idea?

What happens if you try that command with /Tp instead of /Tc? (the .C files are C++, not C)

[jmamou]

Thanks!
First, there is an issue with unistd.
bllipparser-2015.12.3\first-stage\parse\SimpleAPI.h(18): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'unistd.h': No such file or directory
This header is not present in Visual Studio.
I have tried to replace it with io.h or to remove it, and run cl.exe with /Tp, but I got the errors below. Are these errors related to unistd?

Thanks for looking into this. I'm not sure if those errors are unistd.h related, but it's not a great sign that it's complaining about things in the autogenerated wrapper file. I'm afraid it might be a fairly serious undertaking to get this working on Windows (at minimum, I don't have any Windows development experience). Would you be able to run cygwin or Linux in a VM?

[jmamou]

yes, I was able to run on Linux in a VM.
Thanks!

[dmcc]

Great, glad to hear that works! I'm going to close this issue for now since there's a workaround, though would gladly accept a pull-request which fixes it.

[dmcc]

Reopening since we didn't really resolve the issue -- apologies for closing it!

HI,
I've got the same problem.

My Setup:

Windows 10 64 Bit, Python 64 Bit

What I've tried so far:

• Installed Swig for Windows (precompiled & current release[4.0]) and added 'Swig' to PATH
• Download Source from Github to start setup.py manually
• Received the following Output:

Searching for latest installed version of swig...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 105, in <module>
    for suffix in 'Ch'])
  File "setup.py", line 86, in maybe_run_swig
    swig = get_swig_command()
  File "setup.py", line 66, in get_swig_command
    if subprocess.call(['which', 'swig3.0']) == 0:
  File "C:\Program Files\Python37\lib\subprocess.py", line 323, in call
    with Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs) as p:
  File "C:\Program Files\Python37\lib\subprocess.py", line 775, in __init__
    restore_signals, start_new_session)
  File "C:\Program Files\Python37\lib\subprocess.py", line 1178, in _execute_child
    startupinfo)
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden

• I think the error is caused by the subprocess.call() and additionally by the command which that isn't available on windows.

Now I'm trying to investigate this problems.

I changed a little bit in Setup.py.

command = 'which'
    if platform.system() ==  'Windows':
        command = 'where.exe'
        print(platform.system())
    if subprocess.call([command, 'swig3.0']) == 0:

Now I'm getting another error, yeah :-)

I will try further methods to fix the problem and mabye as a result a PR.

I didn't got it to work with 'cmd', but with msys2.
Finally only one little piece had to be changed for getting it compiled.

I had to change the compiler options from std++11 to gnu++11.

bllip-parser/setup.py

Line 148 in f83be9f

'-DSWIGFIX', '-std=c++11'])

(see https://stackoverflow.com/a/22167294/6068675).

I think this has to be done, because popen, pclose and fileno are used, which aren't a part of the C Standard.

Just wondering if there is any update or movement on this, as I am currently having almost an identical issue (Windows 10, python 3.7). The package installs just fine on my mac (High Sierra 10.13, Python 2.7). I'm currently trying to follow your steps above (as you got it to work in the end!?) but wondering if the PR ever happened :)
