I am trying to get my cocotb work with commercial simulators (either modelsim or activeHDL) and I would appreciate if someone could help me get them up and running.
I have a Windows machine where I have installed MSYS2 and anaconda3 from where I can install cocotb. I don't have problem installing (I presume stable) cocotb with pip install cocotb through anaconda prompt, however, when I want to install the development version of cocotb through pip install https://github.com/cocotb/cocotb/archive/master.zip I run into trouble.
Initially, the installation complained about visual studio c++14 not being installed. I decided to install visual Studio build tools and hope it will install but then the installation failed due to following error

----------------------------------------
Is this a problem with cocotb's development version or do I miss something? how can I force cocotb use msys2 build tools instead of visual studio's?
PS. The reason I am trying to install the development version is because of activehdl.
You need set MinGW as the default compiler one way is to:
pip install --global-option build_ext --global-option --compiler=mingw32 https://github.com/cocotb/cocotb/archive/master.zip
More info: How to use MinGW's gcc compiler when installing Python package using Pip?
I will try to add this to the documentation.

After upgrading Python to 3.11, Locust-plugin fails to install as one of its dependency throws error
First it asked me to install VC++ > 14.0
After installing VC++ build tools 15, still it throws a different error
Note: We do not see this issue until Python 3.10.8
Kindly let me know if there is any fix?

3.1 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to enable the '--use-pep517' option. Discussion can be found at https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8559

Right now there is currently no pre-built version of confluent-kafka for 3.11. Hopefully it is on the way though: https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-python/issues/1452
Also, I think the reason cannot build from source is that you need librdkafka installed. I dont know what the windows equivalent is, but apparently someone got it working on Linux this way:
apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends gcc git libssl-dev g++ make && cd /tmp && git clone https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka.git && cd librdkafka && ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install
Looks like we are still waiting for 3.11 confluent-kafka. This is the only thing that is blocking my 3.10 to 3.11 upgrade.
I upgraded Visual Studio 2017 recently and now cannot open a CMake project in Qt Creator 4.8.2.
CMake succeeds to test the compiler when running from cmd.exe but fails in Qt Creator:

As you can see, the compiler path is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\bin\HostX64\x64
However, it’s looking for the linker in the path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.10.25017\bin\HostX64\x64
So my question is: How can I update the linker path to (the only existing) 14.16.27023? Or what else should I do to continue using CMake in Qt Creator?
I’ve tried to find a corresponding option in my Qt Creator Compiler options but it claims to use the same vcvarsall.bat call which works well on command-line…

I’ve tried the following steps without any success:
add C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\bin\HostX64\x64 to PATH as the answer to a similar question suggests
launch Qt Creator from cmd.exe after running vcvarsall.bat in the same window
upgrade CMake to the latest stable version (3.14.1)
install and try in Qt Creator 4.9.0-rc1
search for the string 14.10.25017
in the Windows Registry – no results
in the Qt Creator directory
no configuration files found
found .pdb and .lib files which likely only means they were built using this version of Visual Studio
in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio – no results
in C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits – no results
After several unsuccessful guesses mentioned in the question, I succeeded to open, build and run my project after I issued
Build > Clear CMake Configuration
in the menu of Qt Creator.
I'm trying to install Google OR-Tools for Java in Visual Studio 2015. When I run make all in the OR-Tools directory, as required, I get

I read somewhere to run vcvarsall.bat to set variables, but there is no such file on this path
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat
Plus I'm supposed to run it in Native Tools Command Prompt, but I cannot find this for VS2015, only for VS2017, so I run it in Developer Command Prompt. Might this be the issue?
Apparently, I did not add C++ tools when installing Visual Studio.
File -> New -> Project -> Visual C++ and there's the install option. Maybe it will help someone.
I have tried to install distarray which requires a C++ compiler (which I got from MS) and mpi4py. The installer cannot locate mpi.h and I cannot even install mpi4py by itself. The documentation says I should set an ENV-path, but which path, to Visual studio?

error: Cannot find 'mpi.h' header. Check your configuration!!!
What am I doing wrong? I have tried both in a Windows and a Linux environment without luck. As admin and sudo.
(Should there be tags for mpi4py, mpi.h, mpi.cfg as I cannot create these as a new user)

there is some problem with the nvcc.exe
When i execute nvcc.exe in command prompt, it shows :
nvcc fatal: No input file specified
I'm afraid yours is a non-programming question.
Anyway, if you run nvcc from the command line, you obviously get that error message because you are not specifying which file do you like to compile.
Below, I'm pointing out some other threads with the same problem you detailed. I hope they could be useful to you:
