This page is part of the Sage on Windows port.

Package Analysis

Below you will find a list of packages in Sage as well as remarks on issues that will potentially come up during the Windows port. As we progress we will add detailed problem reports and how we resolved those issues at individual pages.

Packages with upstream MSVC support

  • atlas

    3.8.p11

    Works find fine, Intel C for better performance preferred

    ecm

    6.1.3

    no Windows port, but C, potentially issues with threading. Upstream ecm-6.2 has MSVC project by Brian Gladman - upgrading evm to the 6.2 release is #3237

    gsl

    1.10.p0

    port exists: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gsl.htm. Brian Gladman also maintains a native MSVC port, 32 & 64 bit.

    m4ri

    20071224.p1

    MSVC and SunForte port done by Martin Albrecht and in upstream. Upgrade ticket is #3204

    mpfr

    2.3.1

    pure C, Windows make file support welcome upstream, depends on gmp. MSVC project by Brian Gladman exists and is recommended by upstream

    numpy

    20080104-1.0.4.p2

    support by enthought, builds out of the box with MSVC + ATLAS

    scipy

    20071020-0.6.p3

    support by enthought, builds out of the box with MSVC + ATLAS

    scipy_sandbox

    20071020.p2

    support by enthought, builds out of the box with MSVC + ATLAS

    scons

    0.97

    works fine on Windows, python based.

    tachyon

    0.98beta.p4

    Windows port exists, unsure about MSVC + threading.

    termcap

    XXXX

    twisted

    XXXX

    weave

    0.4.9

    now part of scikits, works fine with MSVC

    znpoly

Pure Python Packages

  • mpmath

    XXXX

    networkx

    0.36.p1

    pure python, no portability issues

    sympy

    0.5.7

    pure python, no portability issues.

Packages without code

  • doc

    2.10.2.alpha0

    no compiled code, so no portability issues.
