I have a situation where I'm being given an object module which has been
compiled using Compaq Visual Fortran that I would like to use in my python
scripts.  I already know I can specify --fcompiler=compaqv to use the same
compiler for the fortran code to wrap the object module, but have not been
successfully able to get --compiler=msvc to work so I can build a pyd I can
use.

I am still using Windows XP (32 bit) for a few more months, and need the
module before we switch over to Win 7 and whatever problems/solutions that
will bring.  Python version is 2.7.3; numpy version is 1.6.1.

The complaint I'm getting hung up on when I specify --compiler=msvc is f2py
cannot find vcvarsall.bat, even though I have a copy of it in the working
directory (making sure a copy was in a directory on the PATH did not work,
either!).  Manually executing vcvarsall.bat modifies the PATH for that
session, but f2py has a problem with the spaces in the directory names
having spaces in them, like "Program Files".  I tried replacing the spaces
with %20's but something (Windows) converted the '%' character to 0, and
that failed.

I know I can compile the obj module into a standalone program with the
wrapper code and execute it using, for example, an os.subprocess, but it
would work so much better if it could be built as a library I can call.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?
