@xoviat, thanks for doing this. I wanted to check and fix scikit-build regarding #144 (comment) but I haven't had time to look at it. Do you know if they have been resolved? |
|
@isuruf Would you mind filing issues on the scikit-build repository? If the issue is not filed, it is no surprise that nothing is done. |
|
Will do tonight |

@xoviat thanks for working on this. I am all for offloading the heavy lifting to |

How important is cross-compile MinGW support? |
|
While the binaries provided in releases are python 3.5+ only, we do build and test with MinGW and MSVC 2015 for python 2.7 support. By 2020, we'll drop 2.7 support, but until then, I'd like to keep 2.7 support if that's not too much trouble. |
|
To be clear, I'm not discussing dropping Python 2.7 support. I'm discussing dropping support for MinGW and Python 3.5+ on windows. |
That's okay |

I don't know what the cause of the import failure that occurs on Travis-CI is. The files seem to be installed to their correct locations. |

Shot in the dark (not sure at all it applies here): at least with pytest (don't use nosetests much myself) I've had strange problems unless I specified |
The MinGW configuration is removed completely to ease maintenance, and MSVC 2015 is used to compile on Python 2.7.

Shouldn't the command just be pip install scikit-build?

Both ways work but the advantage of python -m pip ... is that it's easier to tell which version of Python the package is being installed in (this SO thread discusses it some more). The Python 3 documentation recommends this way of invoking pip (also see this Python issue that implemented the change in the docs).

Maybe this can be incorporated into scikit-build itself?

@isuruf I still think this is a good idea in general to switch to |

Scikit-build is an improved build system generator that automatically prefers the ninja build system.
