[ase-users] [gpaw-users] ASE installation for windows

Mon Nov 3 21:01:10 CET 2014

Dear Marcin,
I have downloaded the latest GPAW snapshot from the following webpage
https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/gpaw/download.html. I have used "Python setup.py
bdist_msi" to generate the windows installer. Although it starts to run but
it shows at the end "unable to find vcvarsall.bat" and creats a folder
named "bound". Can you please tell me what will be the cmd python command
to generate the GPAW msi installer for windows? Or is there anything else I
have to do!!

Best regards,
Zahid
