Python-Scrypt doesn't install on Windows 7 64-bit

Question

It seems that Scrypt doesn't install on my machine. I've installed the version for Windows here. I used Visual Studio free edition, installed OpenSSL 32-bit, and compiled BCrypt with success; but SCrypt returns this error:

> setup.py install

error: command '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\BIN\amd64\cl.exe"' failed with exit status 2
Exit code: 1

UPDATE: copied the library, and now i get another error:

Update2: dont want to compile using GCC:

>setup.py build -c mingw32
running build
running build_ext
building 'scrypt' extension
C:\MinGW64\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O -Wall -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Iscrypt-1.1.6 - Iscrypt-1.1.6/lib -Iscrypt-1.1.6/lib/scryptenc -Iscrypt-1.1.6/lib/crypto -Iscrypt-1.1.6/lib/util -Ic:\OpenSSL-Win32\include -IC:\Python27\include -IC:\Python27\PC -c  src/scrypt2.c -o build\temp.win-amd64-2.7\Release\src\scrypt2.o
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mno-cygwin'
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

and there is no -mno-cygwin in gcc --help

Edit n:

Answer 1

stdint.h is part of C99. Microsoft's C compiler does not support C99. You may have to use another compiler like MinGW or use something like msinttypes.
