Environment

• OS: win10
• Python version: python 3.6
• PyTorch version: 1.0.1
• CUDA/cuDNN version: 9.0/7.0
• GCC version: 6.3.0
• How you tried to install PyTorch Geometric and its extensions (pip, source): pip
• Any other relevant information: I dont use anaconda

Additional context

First, I think it is a problem about environment variable. But when I add D:\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin to the PATH in order to use cl.exe, it still failed to install torch-scatter. I am not a C/C++ coder. Hope can get some useful information here.

You can type “pip install torch-scatter==1.1.2” in cmd to install the package of torch-scatter.

Looks good to me, so I am not really sure what‘s the cause of this issue 😦 I guess running the test suite of torch-scatter fails?
