Cannot build Python bindings on Windows

[ggaddo97]

Hi everybody. I am recently working on path planning for robotic manipulators and I would like to integrate the OMPL library into my Python project.

The problem I am experiencing is not being able to generate the bindings for python. I am working on a machine with windows 10 and Visual Studio 2022. I have installed both ompl and omplapp x64-windows via vcpkg. The installation seems to be successful and the library is correctly included in c++ format in Visual Studio projects. However, when I launch the script with the test gui ompl_app.py, the bindings are not found.

I guess it could be a problem with the compilation of the library itself. I followed the README.md file and compiled the source with cmake and cmake --build. I don't have the make command on windows (or maybe I wasn't able to use it).

I searched online but couldn't find any working solutions, so I wanted to ask if this was a known problem or if other users had been able to use python bindings on windows with ease.
