Windows installation - questions about DLLs

Guillaume Hiron

Hi,

I need to install python (2.3.5) on windows without the giving installer
program.
Do you know what dlls are needed?
I found python23.dll, but the other (msvcrt.dll,msvcrit.dll) seems not
be useful.
Is there other dll? Are msvcrt.dll and msvcrit.dll used by
something?(test/test___all__.py return no error whitout these two dlls).

Thanks for helping.

python23.dll requires msvcrt.dll basically.
if you use some .pyd, python requires other dll.
for example:
import _mysql # you must add a libmysql.dll for this module

Take a look at py2exe it provides a way to "collect" all
necessary files together for you. Add Inno Installer to
the mix and you can create setup.exe insallation programs
that don't require a Python install to distribute software.
