Building Python packages with C extensions under Windows

In order to build modules which have C extensions, you will need either the Visual Studio C++ compiler or MinGW.

Make sure that your Visual Studio C++ or MinGW program path is part of your system’s program path, since the Python build system requires this.

To build and install a package with MinGW, you need to execute:

python setup.py build -c mingw32 install

from the command line.

To build a Windows installer when using MinGW, execute:

python setup.py build -c mingw32 bdist_wininst

Building

Simply execute:

python setup.py innosetup

The generated file can be found under translate-toolkit-<version>\Output (where <version> is the software version).
