All,
Is there any way to compile an existing executable into an RB project?
Basically, I have a few "compiled" Python scripts that do certain
things much better than RB could ever hope. That said, RB does a few
things that would be quite cumbersome in Python (GUI not being the
least of which). Basically, I need to be able to both call (piece of
cake) and preferably have the scripts be completely controlled and
contained within (for asthetics and logistical purposes) one RB
project. Any ideas?
Assuming that this is for either MacOS X or Linux -- you can save each
Python script as an executable file. Add them to your application and
call them from a Shell object. Several people have recommended adding
the scripts as text files to the project. I would recommend not doing
this unless you're attempting to conceal their existence from the
end-user. Adding the Python scripts as resources allows you to modify
them without the need for a recompile.
