[Numpy-discussion] compiling extensions with cygwin???

[Les S. <god...@ne...>]

i need to compile a simple Python extension, which uses NumPy/C API,
on WinXX.

does anyone have (bad/good) experience compiling NumPy extension with
cygwin or mingw32 compilers? i am trying to decide whether i need to
purchase VC++ or not.

many thanks
