py_stringmatching installation error in Pycharm #74

Open Rashmikoparde opened 2 years ago

Rashmikoparde commented 2 years ago

Python - 3.6.8 pip - 21.2.4 pyCharm - 20.3

I am trying to install 'py_entitymatichng' and 'py-stringmatching' but getting the following error.

Running setup.py install for py-stringmatching ... error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required. Get it with "Microsoft C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/

Any Insights are helpful!!

Hi @Rashmikoparde! Looking at your issue, it appears that you either need to get or update Visual Studio on your machine (comes with a C/C++ compiler). Here's a link to part of the documentation that gives some resources for doing that.

It's also likely that addressing #73 will fix this issue.
