Thanks! That helps. As far as I can tell, py2exe is the only executable
builder that can create a COM server DLL, so I'm trying to find out how
to request it to do so. There is an example here:
http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/Py2exeAndWin32com
However, this talks about modules and packages; I have one single file.
Could you (or anyone) steer me in the right direction?
The minimal setup.py (for ctmx.py I posted earlier) I've come up with is
this:
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
import sys
class Target:
def __init__(self, **kw):
self.__dict__.update(kw)
self.version = "1.0"
my_com_server_target = Target(
description = "Contextmenu test",
# use module name for win32com exe/dll server
modules = ["ctxm.ShellExtension"],
# specify which type of com server you want (exe and/or dll)
create_exe = False,
create_dll = True,
)
setup(
name="ContextMenuTest",
# the following two parameters embed support files within
# exe/dll file
options={"py2exe": {"bundle_files": 1, }},
zipfile=None,
py_modules=["ctxm"],
com_server=[my_com_server_target],
)
In case it matters, I'm using Python version 3.4, pywin32 version 219,
py2exe 0.9.2.2.
Regards,
Gertjan.
