py2exe with shelve error

Hi, I have ran into a problem with py2exe 0.5.0 and shelve in python
2.3.3. The script works fine standalone, but not with py2exe.

Does anyone have a solution of workaround for this? Thanks much.

# Begin of setup.py
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe

setup(console=["test.py"])
# End of setup.py

# Begin of test.py
import shelve

f = shelve.open('te st.txt')
f['hello'] = 'world'
f.close()
f = shelve.open('te st.txt')
print f.keys()
print f.values()
# End of test.py

c:\Python>pytho n -V
Python 2.3.3

c:\Python>pytho n test.py
['hello']
['world']

c:\Python>pytho n setup.py py2exe

Hi - this mysterious behavior with shelve is just about to kill me. I hope someone here can shed some light. First of all, I have this piece of code which uses shelve to save instances of some class I define. It works perfectly on an old machine (PII-400) running Python 2.2.1 under RedHat Linux 8.0. When I try to run it under Python for windows ME on a P-4 1.4 GHz, however, it keeps crashing on reading from the shelved file the second...

Last week I encountered an AttributeError in my unit tests that I wasn'table to catch with an "except AttributeError" statement. The problem stemmed from a class that raised an error inside __init__and defined a __del__ method to clean up resources. I then discovered asimilar problem in the shelve module. This led me to two importantdiscoveries: 1. Attributes defined in __init__ after an error is raised will not be apart of the...

I have read a number of threads relating to problems with shelve, but I couldn't find one directly related my experience, so I would appreciate some advice. The closest one ended with a recommendation to upgrade to Python 2.3, but that, unfortunately, is out of my control. The system I use runs Python 2.2.2, and whichdb gives dbhash. The problem only occurs when serializing class instances; lists don't seem to be affected. Every time...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
