Hi,

I have a problem when running some PyDOLFIN tests on Windows:

[snip]
RuntimeError: In instant.recompile: The module did not compile, see
'c:\docume~1\fenics~1\locals~1\temp\tmpwjyrxt2009-3-12-09-33_instant\form_b76a58d1149728584878f64b9d080412d3223f47\compile.log'

Looking at compile.log reveals that it cannot find swig\ufc.i:

form_b76a58d1149728584878f64b9d080412d3223f47.i(29): Error: Unable to find
'swig\ufc.i'

The problem seems to be how swig_cmd is defined in setup.py in the same
folder:

  swig_cmd = 'swig -python -Ic:\fenicsslave\local\include -c++ ...'

When the string swig_cmd is sent to os.system in the next step (in
setup.py) the command actually becomes

  swig -python -Ic:fenicsslavelocalinclude -c++ ...

which obviously do not work.

I'm not sure if this should be fixed in Instant or in FFC but I suggest to
make swig_cmd a raw string by prefixing it with 'r', that is in
src/instant/codegeneration.py:

-        swig_cmd ='swig -python %s %s %s'
+        swig_cmd = r'swig -python %s %s %s'
