I like the idea ☺ but according to the setuptools website, "Automatically generate wrapper scripts or Windows (console and GUI) .exe files for any number of "main" functions in your project. (Note: this is not a py2exe replacement; the .exe files rely on the local Python installation.)"
So I'd still need to install python to use them (as opposed to how py2exe works where you can just distribute the .exe with a .dll and away you go) I'm working on making an automated script to just deploy python and avoid the whole mess, but I thought I'd ask in case someone else had investigated and found a solution!

The nightly should automatically create .exe files when installing. It will still require the simplejson dependency at install time, but at least the resulting .exe will have it built-in. You could probably distribute that.

That is, I can, from Windows, run post-review and create a review with a diff. WooHoo! The only catch is that I've been asked to make it not require so many installs: specifically, I've been asked to make a single .zip containing all of the .dll and .exe files needed for this to run. "OK" says I : that should be do-able. I've done it before for other python scripts. But I can't for the life of me figure out how to get around the .egg files (for rbtools and for json). I can build a post-review- script.exe that can't find RBTools, and I can build a postreview.exe that can't find simple json, but I can't build what they're asking for. Any suggestions? Right now, I'm trying to get "hey, look, having python installed isn't a bad thing!" accepted, but if anyone could point me in the right direction I would MUCH appreciate it :) Thanks! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "reviewboard" group.
