QuickFix includes bindings for Python. How do I install QuickFix so that I can import quickfix in Python on Windows?

  • easy_install quickfix doesn't work
  • both binary and source downloads don't include setup.py
  • The source download has the following folder called python (amongst many others) - how do I use it?

enter image description here

Even less promising is the binary download which has a .lib file and an include folder with all the header files.

Please don't assume knowledge about makefiles or swig :)

I'm marking this as the right answer as it solved my problem, but if someone will post a description of how this could be done manually I'll transfer the answer as it would be a better fit for the question
A repository completely awesome! Thank you very much, cgohlke. And @Jonathan for asking exactly what the most of us think. ;)

I don't see any Windows project files, and SWIG implies that there is some native (i.e. C/C++) code to be compiled. Odds are fairly good that this simply won't work under Windows, although you may try Cygwin if it's really important to get this working.

This is just a sub-directory called python which is part of the entire project which has a visual studio solution and much more. I showed only this as I thought this would be the key
So... my mind reading abilities aren't yet fully developed. Got it.
