packaging python for install.

[J]

Hi everyone,


I have posted a question on this topic before and already received some
useful advice. I am basically trying to package python with
an App that embedds the interpretor. I am also including numarray (i.e.
I have a #include <numarray/arrayobject.h> in my C++ code). However it
looks like I have problems with numarray.

I have run the following:
[color=blue][color=green]
>>python setup.py py2exe --includes numarray[/color][/color]

where
[color=blue]
>setup.py contains
>
>from distutils.core import setup
>import py2exe
>
>setup()[/color]

This produced the 'dist' directory including the library.zip file.
However there was also the following error message:
[color=blue]
>The following modules appear to be missing
>['numarray._dotb las'][/color]

I renamed library.zip to python24.zip and changed the registry entry
PythonDir to c:\python24\dis t... Then I started my app again. It seems
that native python (i.e. PyType_READY) worked fine, but a call to
numarray function PyArray_FromDim sAndData just crashes the App without
an error message.

I have also tried using
[color=blue][color=green]
>>python setup.py py2exe -p numarray[/color][/color]

without success. Has anyone packaged numarray before... any advice ?


Cheers
Jochen

Re: packaging python for install.

Hi


I found the solution to problem and I just want to document it for the
next guy. I
did not copy the content of the 'dist' directory created by Py2exe to
the folder containing my executable.

Changing HKEY_LOCAL_MACH INE\SOFTWARE\Py thonCore\<versi on>. alone
did not work for me... maybe I should have found and changed PYTHONPATH
as
well :) Anyways, now I have a solution.

thx for all the help
