With many linux distributions, I am aware that you can easily install the Python development libraries with a package manager on the command line, but that is not available on Windows 11. I have searched about how I can do this online, but I have gotten no results.
How do I install the development Libraries on Windows 11, preferably without using WSL?
You don’t need to do anything special, the headers are already included with the regular install. You might want to enable the options to download debugging symbols and debug binaries, since those are useful when debugging. If already installed you can do that via “Add/Remove Programs” in the Control Panel.
Sorry, I think I wasn’t specific enough on my original post.
What I was referencing is how on MacOS and linux, installing python development libraries automatically comes with pkg-config and python3.pc, both of which are absent from a windows installation.
I build on all 3 OS types and did not need the pkg-config on Windows.
Where are you seeing code look for python3.pc?
Sorry for the late reply. The specific thing that I needed them for was go-python3, where pkg-config and python3.pc are both required.
You want to build a prohject that only supports python 3.7 and has not seen an update in 3 years?
Do you have pkg-config for Windows?
I think you will need to write your own python3.pc
