Hi,
I'm using python 2.7 with anaconda.
I try to run a file that uses the function weave.inline() however I get the error:
"CompileError: error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat"
I've installed microsoft c++ comiler for python, but stiil keep getting the error.
(When i do search on the file "vcvarsall.bat" in the "C" directory, I don't get any results.)

The detailed error is:

Missing compiler_cxx fix for MSVCCompiler
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "C:\Users\Ron\Anaconda2\lib\site-packages\weave\inline_tools.py", line 366, in inline

Can anyone help me?
Thank, Ron

As you see i use conda witch is Anaconda package manager.
Should not try to compile when use Anaconda,
