Hello,

Do you know why does the Python binding breaks with Python-3.11?

Thank you,
Yuri

[meshula]

If you go into src/deps/pybind11, and git pull to the latest pybind11, does the problem resolve? Our copy of pybind11 is over a year old, and I wonder if there are fixes that we need.

[yurivict]

The build succeeds with the latest pybind11 release.
Why don't you just add it to the "required" set?

[meshula]

Thanks for investigating. We should bump it. A blocker is that the CI is currently failing so we'll need to take a look at that. Something is attempting to invoke a 32 bit msvc toolchain.

Do we support 32-bits? It looks like that action is trying to build for both x64 and x86:

cibuildwheel version 2.16.5

Build options:
  platform: windows
  architectures: AMD64, x86

Doing a quick search, it looks like the docs say it tries to build both arches by default on Windows:
