windows平台使用Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7编译python扩展
在windows平台上安装python c extension的扩展包是件很痛苦的事情，一般通过安装vc/vs系列来编译C扩展，不过安装包都比较大。或者通过mingw编译，不过有时会在兼容性上出现点问题。
有个好消息就是微软为Python提供了专用的编译器Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7（包含32位和64位） 下载地址: http://aka.ms/vcpython27（这个貌似是进入官网了，然后搜索即可找到）
提示：在此感谢@ThunderEX的提醒，setuptools 6.0及后续版本可以自动识别Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7了，赶紧升级吧。如果不能升级，请参考下面的操作步骤。
1.下载完成并安装。以本机为例，安装完成后的路径为:
|
1
|
C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Programs\Common\Microsoft\Visual C
+
+
for
Python\
9.0
|
2.修改python安装目录下Lib\distutils\msvc9compiler.py文件(如有必要可能msvccompiler.py文件也需要做相应更改，视系统而定)，找到get_build_version方法直接return 9.0

def
get_build_version():
"""Return the version of MSVC that was used to build Python.

sys.version. For earlier versions, assume the compiler is MSVC 6.

return

i

sys.version.find(prefix)

if

:

return

然后再找到find_vcvarsall方法直接返回vcvarsall.bat的路径（以自己机器安装后的路径为准）

3.上述完成之后就可以在windwos下正常编译python的C扩展。以pycrypto-2.6.1为例，执行如下命令
|
1
|
python setup.py install
|
当然也可以建立一个windows的二进制包
|
1
|
python setup.py bdist_wininst
|
