How use pyMSVC with the same API like setuptools.msvc ?
Otherwise you would need to use the "x86_x64 Cross Tools Command Prompt for VS 2019"

Phoenix/build.py

Lines 791 to 804 in d85cb0e

cmd = "import setuptools, distutils.msvc9compiler as msvc; " \
"mc = msvc.MSVCCompiler(); " \
"mc.initialize(); " \
"print(mc.cc)"
CC = runcmd('"%s" -c "%s"' % (PYTHON, cmd), getOutput=True, echoCmd=False)
if not quiet:
msg("MSVC: %s" % CC)
# Now get the environment variables which that compiler needs from
# its vcvarsall.bat command and load them into this process's
# environment.
cmd = "import setuptools, distutils.msvc9compiler as msvc; " \
"arch = msvc.PLAT_TO_VCVARS[msvc.get_platform()]; " \
"env = msvc.query_vcvarsall(msvc.VERSION, arch); " \

and put the mscv.py and vswhere.py files into the same folder as build.py

if you want to use the pyMSVC library instead of adding files then change this code

        import msvc
        if not msvc.environment.visual_c.version.startswith('14.2'):
            raise RuntimeError('MSVC compiler needs to be >= 14.2')

to this

        import pyMSVC
        if not pyMSVC.environment.visual_c.version.startswith('14.2'):
            raise RuntimeError('MSVC compiler needs to be >= 14.2')

and you will be off and running.

Sooo easy to do isn't it?? That's why I made the library the way I did.

See you working in the package pyMSVC and i will like integrate to build.py.

I have integrated pyMSVC towards the build.py in this branch

If you can try that branch. I would like the output of 'pyMSVC.setup_environment()' to be optional or using logging. DEBUG=True for example

I plan on doing that. This is still a work in progress to see if we can get it compiling.

Not sure what you mean.

pyMSVC which minimum version of Python works ?
I added type hinting so Ptyhon 3.4+. If I remove the type hinting python 2.7 and 3.4+

in the pyMSVC setup.py you can add 'python_requires' and 'classifiers'
They can be added.

As a note. If you build using build.py in wxPython you can have it download pyMSVC only for the purpose of building wxPython. You would need to use setuptools and when you call setup do it like this.

setup(
    name='dummy_build',
    script_args=['build'],
    setup_requires=['pyMSVC'],
    dependency_links = [
        'https://github.com/kdschlosser/python_msvc/tarball/master/#egg=pyMSVC'
    ],
)

doing that will download pyMSVC from github and place it into a folder called .eggs and that folder gets added to sys.path so the modules in it can be imported. This way pyMSVC will not get installed into the users library at all. calling setup is only for the purpose of using the mechanics to download and make available pyMSVC for the purpose of building wxPython.

Not sure what you mean.

In wxPython the build.py require distutils.msvc9compiler -> vcvarsall.bat therefore it must be compiled using "Visual Studio Tools VC - x86_x64 Cross Tools Command Prompt for VS 2019"

I would recommend you to continue with typing, because Python 2 reached its final life cycle

I try that in the branch "try-pyMSVC" and send the PR to the repo with the changes for work pyMSVC from git repository. pyMSVC need define the install_requires if you planning public to PyPI

for wxPython only include for "requirements/devel.txt"

Compile successfully with the changes made to build.py in the wxPython repository and the PR towards python_msvc repository

It's up to @RobinD42 if he wants to add a dependency or if he would rather add it directly to wxPython. I personally feel it would be better for him to add it directly to wxPython instead of relying on an external dependency.

I wasn't planning on adding it to pypi. I can if needs be. Because the library doesn't deal in absolute paths like distutils and setuptools there shouldn't be an issue with it working properly for several years. The single biggest mistake that setuptools and distutils makes it is calls the vcvars* batch files to set up the environment and those files do not always set up a proper build environment.

I did want to mention to you since you saw the setup_environment function.

You can remove the whole version checking portion of the code from build.py and all that needs to be added is this

import pyMSVC

environment = pyMSVC.setup_environment(minimum_c_version=14.2)

pyMSVC will handle collecting the proper compiler and if one is not found it will raise an exception.

I guess you're a genius, writing this! After fixing that error (see my issue here), I guess I could have used this, and I would have been very happy. But now I've found out, that installing Python 3.9 instead of Python 3.10 on Windows 10 solved that problem. Thought I'd share, and that you might be interested - fwiw.

@kdschlosser

Yeah we know that downgrading the Python version will fix the issue. But that is a band-aide and all band-aides eventually fall off. We need to get everything up and running properly with Python 3.10 and since my MSVC library uses comtypes had to get comtypes fixed so it would work in > Python 3.6 and get a release done up. The goal is to remove the MSVC library from being included with wxPython and instead have it added to the requirements. This also poses it's own set of issues because setuptools deprecated the mechanism that installs build only requirements into a temporary build folder and not into the users site packages.

That pyMSVC library has taken a long time to develop. Microsoft has no consistency with installations of Visual Studio, Visual C any of the SDKs or build tools. it's a complete mess. I didn't want to use hard coded paths to look for thing and I didn't want to do recursive searches for things in the file system. I also didn't want to have to create a process to collect information either.

The current MSVC library is the result of that.

I have windows 11. I tried Python 3.11, 3.10, 3.7 and the corresponding wheels wxpython (all 64 bit). I haven't found any combination that doesn't cause the installation to crash. Can you advise me on specific functional packages for installation in Windows 11? I still get the error: whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.
