Hi Oswaldo, cairocffi itself is pure-Python, but it depends on CFFI which, on CPython, involves compiling some C code. You’ll need a C compiler to install from source, though I don’t know which compilers work. It probably should be the same as the one that built your Python. See the CFFI docs: http://cffi.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ The easiest is probably to use Christoph Gohlke’s unofficial binaries: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#cffi After that, you’ll also need to have cairo somewhrere cairocffi can find it: http://pythonhosted.org/cairocffi/overview.html#installing-cairo-on-windows Cheers, -- Simon Sapin -- cairo mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cairographics.org/mailman/listinfo/cairo
