pygraphviz

Windows下pygraphviz的安装

1. 安装graphviz

2. 下载pygraphviz源代码

3. 修改pygraphviz的setup.py，

   library_path="C:\\Program Files\\Graphviz2.20\\lib"
   include_path="C:\\Program Files\\Graphviz2.20\\include\\graphviz"

将148行中的extension定义中的runtime_library_dirs改成None,

4. python setup.py install

Trouble Shooting

安装的时候不知道什么原因，import pygraphviz的时候，出现

ImportError: DLL load failed with error code 193

后来在控制台中运行python(而不是在IDLE中)，import的时候出现了更多的提示，提示是一个so文件不是合法的windows程序(?),不知为什么，后来将编译出来的pyd文件覆盖(_graphviz)，貌似解决问题了
