_ssl.pyd in py2exe ???

[Fuzzyman]

I've written a Tkinter application and am bundling it using py2exe 0.5

Because of the inclusion of Tk/TCL the final package is rather
large........ but why on earth in an anagram finder is _ssl.pyd (500k)
being bundled in with it ???

Seems rather odd ? Possibly this is something *other* than the secure
socket layer library... but if it is that... bizzare........ .

You probably have some dependency on socket somewhere, which pullsin the ssl
module.

Probably that some module you have imported requires it, maybe Tk?

It jumbles up words and displays the results in a Tk window......... ..

Which is why I'm surprised to see an SSL library there...

My imports are :


import string, os.path, sys
from cPickle import dump, load
from copy import copy, deepcopy
from time import clock, strftime
from webbrowser import open as openbrow

try:
import psyco # python specialising compiler
psyco.full()
except:
pass

from Tkinter import *
from tkFileDialog import asksaveasfilena me, askopenfilename
from tkMessageBox import showerror

None of which *should* be dependant on the SSL library........ ...


Hmmm... odd :-)

_ssl is imported by the httplib and socket modules.
socket is imported by a lot of modules, webbrowser among them, so this
is explained.

If you are sure your program never uses socket (or _ssl), you should use
py2exe's excludes option to avoid that these are included.

I did wonder if it was the webbrowser module !
It's half a meg of unnecessary 'stuff' - so I'll set py2exe to not include it.

MANY THANKS
