Question

I know that there is a  Microsoft Visual C   Compiler for Python 2 7  but is there  currently or planned  a Microsoft Visual C   Compiler for Python 3 4 or eve Microsoft Visual C   Compiler for Python 3 x for that matter   It would be supremely beneficial if I didn t have to install a different version of visual studio on my entire lab

Visual Studio Community 2015 suffices to build extensions for Python 3.5. It's free but a 6 GB download (overkill). On my computer it installed vcvarsall at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat

For Python 3.4 you'd need Visual Studio 2010. I don't think there's any free edition. See https://matthew-brett.github.io/pydagogue/python_msvc.html

Unfortunately to be able to use the extension modules provided by others you ll be forced to use the official compiler to compile Python   These are    Visual Studio 2008 for Python 2 7  See  https   docs python org 2 7 using windows html compiling-python-on-windows Visual Studio 2010 for Python 3 4  See  https   docs python org 3 4 using windows html compiling-python-on-windows   Alternatively  you can use MinGw to compile extensions in a way that won t depend on others   See  https   docs python org 2 install  gnu-c-cygwin-MinGW or https   docs python org 3 4 install  gnu-c-cygwin-mingw  This allows you to have one compiler to build your extensions for both versions of Python  Python 2 x and Python 3 x
