Installing Accera on Windows

Installing on Windows

Install dependencies

Visual Studio

Accera's generated code requires a C++ compiler. Download Visual Studio 2019 Enterprise Edition or Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition, and select Desktop development with C++ during installation.

If you've selected VS 2019 and would like to use parallelization, ensure that Update 10 or later is installed. Both VS 2019 Update 10 or later and VS 2022 include the LLVM OpenMP libraries.

Python

Accera's packages require Python 3.7 64-bit or newer, plus a version of pip that supports 64-bit packages (win_amd64). One way to obtain this is to download and install Miniconda. Download "Miniconda3 Windows 64-bit".

Optional: Create a conda environment

After installing Miniconda, you can optionally create an environment to manage different Python versions.

From an "Anaconda Prompt", create and then activate an environment for Python 3.7 (or a newer version if you prefer):

conda create -n py37 python=3.7
conda activate py37

Install Accera

The accera Python package can be installed from PyPI:

pip install accera
