Description

I failed to install apex:
$pip install -v --no-cache-dir --global-option="--cpp_ext" --global-option="--cuda_ext"
/home/usr/anaconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/commands/install.py:194: UserWarning: Disabling all use of wheels due to the use of --build-options / --global-options / --install-options.
cmdoptions.check_install_build_global(options)
How can I fix it and install apex successfully?
