py2exe and Pmw problem
----------------------
I was really surprised not to find some faq setting out what to do to
get py2exe working for a program using
Pmw. I'm haemorrhaging time here, and I'm now just after step-by-step
guidance on using py2exe and Pmw
together. I wasn't expecting this to take hours...
I've used py2exe succesfully on non-gui programs, and the Python program
I'm trying to py2exe works fine on
the interpreter. I've used bundlepmw.py to create Pmw.py. I've tried
putting Pmw.py, and PmwColor.py and
PmwBlt.py in all sorts of places, and always I get a message as if I
hadn't provided any of them:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "newproj.py", line 21, in ?
File "Pmw\__init__.pyc", line 28, in ?
WindowsError: [Errno 3] The system cannot find the path specified:
'C:\\data\\Software\\Python\\newproj\\v2_1\\dist\\ library.zip\\Pmw/*.*'
Also, once I've successfully py2exe'd, where do I have to put all the
various dll, pyd, and zip files
when I want to run it on another machine? (I'm not a native to
Windows.)
-----------------------
I'm trying to create the executable on a Windows XP platform, with
Python 2.3, but the executable is to run
on other flavours of Windows too.
My setup.py follows (uncommenting the "packages" line doesn't seem to
make any difference):
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
import sys
sys.argv.append("py2exe") #Avoids having to use the command line
setup(
version = "2.1",
description = "Creates default file structures for new
projects/tenders",
name = "newproj",
# packages = ["Pmw"],
# targets to build
windows = ["newproj.py"],
)
-----------------------
Please don't just point me to places like the following without extra
guidance - I've already been to loads
of these, and I've spent too long trying to piece it all together:

Thanks in advance for any help.
