Cairo for 64 bit Windows?

[Jan Bodnar]

Hello,

Is there a version of Cairo library for 64bit version of Windows?

This link http://wxpython.org/cairo/ suggests that we have only

32bit version of Cairo library for wxPython on Windows. 

Thanks,

Jan Bodnar

Hi,

I have succeeded with the files at this site http://wxpython.org/cairo/.
For 32bit compatibility layer on 64bit windows.
We install the py2cairo executable (py2cairo-1.10.0.win32-py2.7.exe)
and copy all the dependencies
(zlib, cairo, libpng, Freetype, Fontconfig, expat and gettext-runtime)
to the Lib\site-packages\cairo directory. And it works.

From this link http://www.gtk.org/download/win64.php we learn, that
the 64bit version of Cairo is experimental (thanks for pointing to the
GTK site),
so I leave it now and stay with the 32bit version.

Thanks,

Jan Bodnar
