py2exe copies to much dlls

Hi,

I managed to build a simple com server with py2exe. My script only imports
codecs and re, but the dist folder contains tcl84.dll, tk84.dll and
win32ui.pyd. Can somebody tell me why? And how to prevent this? I don't do
any gui stuff, so where does the dependency comes from?

regards,
Achim

Can you py2exe the following script and see what you get? If it's
still the same stuff, post the py2exe setup.py script you used and
the command line:

# test script

print 'Hello, world!'

(Yes, that's all... :-)

py2exe finds module paths by parsing your python source file.
I think it also uses the PYTHONPATH environmenet variable.
So if your PYTHONPATH contains $PYTHON/lib-tk (which it normally
does), py2exe will copy the tcl/tk dlls too into the build
directory, which are needed for tkinter.

Try editing the PYTHONPATH variable and remove the lib-tk
directory from it.

Hi all, I can't get a py2exe compiled app to run with numarray (numarray-0.5.win32- py2.2). Also wxPythonWIN32-2.3.3.1-Py22 and ActivePython-2.2.1-222. In the sample below, commenting out "import numarray" allows the exe to run. Left in, I get "4.exe has generated errors" etc. I'm going around and around and there isn't much on Google. py2exe output is last.

Using py2exe under WinMe, I bundled up a python program containing a single line: print "hello world" When I zip up the dist directory and move it to another WinMe machine, trying to run hello.exe either reboots or pops up a dialog box that says Hello has caused an error in PYTHON23.DLL

I wrote an app that uses some Tix widgets and wanted to make an exe using py2exe .i used the setup script as given in http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/TixSetup and it copies the dlls into the dist directory created by py2exe. But then the application works only if i create a directory named 'DLLs ' and copy the tix84.dll alone into that directory. it seems silly to have tix84.dll in that dir and all other dlls in the dist directory.can...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
