Failed building wheel for pupil-apriltags #41

Closed pinhaocheng closed 3 years ago

pinhaocheng commented 3 years ago

Hello there,

It seems like this repo is able to support apriltags on windows, however, I faced some difficulties when installing it on VS code (windows 10).

It seems like it's stuck at the building wheel step.

I am using the pip install pupil-apriltags method, with the latest python 3.9.6 and pip 21.2.3.

Details:

Building wheel for pupil-apriltags (PEP 517) ... error

  Complete output (46 lines):
  Not searching for unused variables given on the command line.
  CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (PROJECT):
    Generator

      Visual Studio 15 2017

    could not find any instance of Visual Studio.

  ERROR: Failed building wheel for pupil-apriltags
Failed to build pupil-apriltags
ERROR: Could not build wheels for pupil-apriltags which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly

Any help provided would be greatly appreciated!

I've already had this problem, it was necessary to install Visual Studio in order to install the library.

@ejs94

I already have Visual Studio 2019 installed. I found this thread, and this video. I have followed what they did but I have no luck building the wheel still.

Did you do anything differently? I might be missing something that I didn't notice.

I had to downgrade to python 3.7 for this to work, had the same issues on 3.9!

Thanks @mark-belbin!

Downgraded to python 3.7.9 and it's working now.
