Py-faster-rcnn: how to install py-faster-rcnn on windows

[MrGF]

Hi, I'm trying to compile py-faster-rcnn(downloaded from here: https://github.com/rbgirshick/py-faster-rcnn) on windows.
When I run "python .\lib\setup.py build_ext --inplace", I got this error:
AttributeError: MSVCCompiler instance has no attribute 'compiler_so'.

Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
I wonder if there are someone who successfully run this code on Windows. Can you share your exprience with me? Thanks a lot!

I found this and it seems to work:
https://github.com/MrGF/py-faster-rcnn-windows/

i tried this implementation, accompanied with a whole lot of downloading Visual Studio, cmake and other stuff and am currently stuck importing caffe.

The documentation is really sparse, could you maybe tell me a bit more precisely, HOW you got it to work?

Hello, I have a difficulty in compiling py-faster-rcnn on windows OS.

Is there anybody who can release prebuilt binaries as like caffe-windows ?

Thank you in advance.
