Using pywine to compile Cython

Closed this issue a year ago · 3 comments

Hi,

I am trying to compile a cython package using pywine docker image and I am getting the following error:
Error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required. Get it with "Microsoft C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/

I am wondering if is it possible to include c++ build tools as part of the image.

After some consideration, I'm not interested in supporting this usecase. If you want to build an image with cython build support, feel free to use my image as a base and I'd be happy to link to it from my README.
