I am trying to freeze a static executable. I built a static Python
executable this way:
./configure --disable-shared --prefix=/usr/local
make
make install
Even that didn't give me a really static executable, though:
$ ldd /usr/local/bin/python
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7f44000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7f40000)
libutil.so.1 => /lib/libutil.so.1 (0xb7f3c000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0xb7f17000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7de9000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f70000)
Then I typed this:
/usr/local/bin/python
/home/wware/Python-2.4.1/Tools/freeze/freeze.py foo.py
ldd foo
$ ldd foo
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7f5a000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7f56000)
libutil.so.1 => /lib/libutil.so.1 (0xb7f52000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0xb7f2d000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7dff000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f86000)
What stupid thing am I doing wrong?
TIA for any advice

AFAIK it's not supported because the interpreter won't be able to load
C extensions if compiled statically. There is a bootstrap issue, to
build a static python executable you need extensions built but to build
extensions you need python, so you need unconventional build procedure.
After python build is finished you get static library libpython2.4.a.
Then you need all extensions you're going to use built as .a files (I'm
not even sure there is a standard way to do it). Then you need to write
a loader like in py2exe, exemaker, pyinstaller, etc that will
initialize python interperter and extensions. Those three pieces
(libpython2.4.a , extensions, loader) can be linked as a static
executable.

Hi,
i'd like to build an executable file that is linked with
a python library and executes a script via PyRun_SimpleString
or similar functions.
Is there a static library of python available, so the users
don't need to install python?

I am working in VC++ so this may be microsoft specific though I don't think
so. Excuse me if it is.
Assuming it isn't, can someone generally explain the purpose of having
both - is it purely a deployment/distribution thing.
I notice that the static library generates obj files and a Lib file. Could
someone kindly explain how they relate to one another.
Thanks very much

I have an application that requires a DLL and an executable that uses the
DLL, both of which were implemented in Visual C++ using unmanged code. Both
the executable and the DLL are linked with functions that are stored in a

globals within functions linked from the static library appear to be
initialized twice, once when the executable initializes the run-time code,...

Most of my ideas seem usless or stupid, but I think expressing them
here doesn't harm much.
This is an idea for Py 3.0, because it's not backward compatible.
Dicts and sets require immutable keys, like tuples or frozensets, but
to me they look like a duplication. So the idea is to remove tuples and
frozensets (and replace the few other uses of tuples with lists, like
the % interpolation), and to add a freeze operation, to freeze lists,...

Hello,
I have a large legacy MFC application. As is typical, there is an
executable along with several MFC DLLs. One of these DLLs is created by
staticly linking in many libraries resulting in one very large DLL that has
the bulk of the code.
I've downloaded the MFCWinFormsSample.EXE and have noticed that the main app
could stay as a native executable (i.e. no CLR support) whereas the various
..DLLs can be marked as having CLR...

What is the memory footprint of static methods of a windows app running on a
server when the server spins up multiple instances of the application?
In my envirionment, we have a Citrix server farm running .Net 2.0 windows
apps. Does the framework allow for instances of the same application to
access the same memory space where static methods are stored (assuming the
security context is the same for each instance)?

Hi, all.
I have a Windows DLL that exports a number of functions. These functions
expect to receive a pointer to a callback function and an opaque void*
parameter. The callback functions are typedef'd to take void* parameters,
through which the DLL's function passes its void* parameter to the callback
function. This allows me to use class instances as callback handlers, as in
the example below.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
