using cmath special functions extending Python with C++ - c++

Question

I am trying to build a Python package in C++, and when I build, I get no errors; however, when I use pip install, I get the following result:

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

I have a feeling it's trying to use C++ 14 (which didn't include comp_ellint_1f) because I see the number in the directories listed, but in my properties page (for both Release and Debug), I have the "C++ Language Standard" set to "ISO C++ 20 Standard (/std:c++20)".
When I remove that function from the project, pip installs the package just fine, and I can import it into Python without issue. I am not sure how to tell it to use C++ 20 for the pip install portion.

Answer 1

Thanks for the compiler flag suggestion; the following worked:
from setuptools import setup, Extension
sfc_module = Extension('package_name', sources = ['module.cpp'],
extra_compile_args=["/std:c++20"],
)
setup(
name='package_name',
version='0.0',
scripts=[],
ext_modules=[sfc_module]
)
