[Pythoncard-users] py2exe (setup.py) for pythoncard apps

[Tony C. <cap...@gm...>]

I've used py2exe for several command-line apps before, but not for a
Pythoncard app.

Would someone post the contents of setup.py for a Pythoncard app?

How do you get py2exe to put the script.rsrc.py file inside the .exe ?

thanks

Try using standalonebuilder..it takes care of all these details.

Hi Tony:

Take a look at the standaloneBuilder tool which comes with the 
PythonCard distribution. My brief notes on the process of converting 
PythonCard apps to executables can be found here:

http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/standalone.html

Although this is based around using pyInstaller, the standaloneBuilder 
app supports py2exe as well.

I've attached copies of the setup.py and associated data files that 
standaloneBuilder generates for a py2exe build, hope this helps.

Essentially, the resource files stay as they are, i.e. they don't get 
packed into the EXE in any way. I've often thought it would be useful to 
write some sort of helper class which would allow resource files to be 
bundled up into a module that the app could import, along similar lines 
to the img2py stuff which comes with the wxPython demo.

Thanks, but unfortunately, we have requirements where I work to use
py2exe for all projects

Standalonebuilder supports py2exe. In addition, minimalStandalone and  
other samples and tools have examples of using py2exe. You may also  
want to search this topic in the archives, just follow the links from  
the PythonCard home page to the archives and then do a search.
