#49493 — Issues compiling hunspell from source on windows

Hi I am trying to compile a python module called hunspell from the following [source](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hunspell).

But I get the following error message.

	C:\Users\KURO\Desktop\hunspell-0.1>setup.py install
	running install
	running build
	running build_ext
	building 'hunspell' extension
	C:\mingw\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O -Wall -D_LINUX -I/usr/include/hunspell
	 -IC:\Python27\include -IC:\Python27\PC -c hunspell.c -o build\temp.win-amd64-2.
	7\Release\hunspell.o -Wall

	d -lhunspell-1.2
	collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
	error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

I tried downloading libhunspell-1.2-0.dll and put it into my system. But I still get the same error message. How do I deal with this? I have Windows 7 and [mingw](http://www.develer.com/oss/GccWinBinaries)

According to 
http://docs.python.org/2/extending/windows.html
you need to use the same compiler for the extension as used to compile python.

That means one of
1. Use the MSC version used for your python
2. Recompile python from source using mingw
3. Switch to linux :-)

Haha... nooo I already use Linux. But I am currently doing a project that required me to run my script on Windows as well as Linux. TO be precise I am supposed to create a stand alone executable for my script which runs great on Linux, but to create one for Windows I need to be able to run the script first. My script runs fine on Linux as its hella easy to install the module, but on windows I cant seem to be able to get the module working :(

It appears you are using a 32 bit compiler with a 64-bit python.
Install a 32 bit python.

I installed a 32 bit python and it still gives me the same error.
