The following two sections provide instructions on downloading, installing and setting up the Express Edition of the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. Maple should be restarted upon completion. Upon successful completion, the Compiler:-Setup command stores the location of the vcvars64.bat file in a launch.ini file so that Maple may set the environment properly for use of the Microsoft C compiler. If called with no arguments, a dialog is presented within which you may browse the file system to locate the vcvars64.bat file. If called with a string path, the path argument should be the full path to the vcvars64.bat batch file distributed with the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) Compiler:-Setup can be used to configure a different compiler and SDK combination to be used. By default Maple will automatically detect and use the latest version of Microsoft C compiler and Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) that is installed on the system. This procedure may require administrator access.

On other platforms, it currently serves no purpose and simply raises an exception. The procedure Compiler:-Setup is used to set up the location of the batch file used by the Microsoft C compiler on 64-bit Windows platforms.
