Not sure to understand all of this. I have Python 2.7.3 and openssl.

[aresn]

were you finally able to build bignum on windows ? I'm having a similar problem.

[alberthendriks]

I (finally) managed to build on Windows 7. One of the errors I got was:

bignum.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol BN_mod_inverse [C:\Users\user\Downloads\bitcoinjs\bitcoinjs\bitcoinjs-server\node_modules\node-bignum\build\bignum.vcxproj]

C:\Users\user\Downloads\bitcoinjs\bitcoinjs\bitcoinjs-server\node_modules\nodebignum\build\Release\bignum.node : fatal error LNK1120: 33 unresolved externals [C:\Users\user\Downloads\bitcoinjs\bitcoinjs\bitcoinjs-server\node_modules\node-bignum\build\bignum.vcxproj]

It's because some openssl lib file is not included. Workaround:
In binding.gyp, on the same level of (and after) include_dirs, add:
"libraries" : ["C:/OpenSSL-Win64/lib/*.lib"]

after that node-gyp configure and node-gyp build should work.

[aresn]

Thank you , I also got this working :)

[mscdex]

This should work out of the box on Windows once nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#4051 is resolved.

[srw]

Could you post the instructions? I receive hundreds of errors in Visual Studio 2012.

[alberthendriks]

This is a long time ago for me. I never completed anything for this project.
