Hi, I have a question about compiled python files with the pyc.py example. I read that the dll must exist from the directory from which the executable is executed. For example, let's say I compiled my code to: myProg.exe myProgr.dll
and they both reside in C:\Temp\myProg.exe, along with IronPython.dll and IronPythonModules.dll If I try to execute myProg.exe from any other directory (i.e - I'm in C:\Windows, and running C:\Temp\myProg.exe), I get the following error: Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT : 0x80070002) at System.Reflection.Assembly.nLoadFile(String path, Evidence evidence) at System.Reflection.Assembly.LoadFile(String path) at PythonMain.Main() What do I need to do to make myProg.exe run from anywhere? Specfically, this bothers me because in deploying Windows Services wriiten in IronPython. Let's say I just compiled myService.exe, along with myService.dll, and they're both in C:\Temp (along with IronPython DLLs). After I register the service, it fails to start, since the current directory of the services.exe (who executes myService.exe) is %SystemRoot%\system32 If I put myService.dll in the system32 directory, the service works. But I don't want to put myService.dll in system32 (and many more dlls that I use). So, my question is: * Can I make the magic that will cause myService.exe/myProg.exe to look for its DLL inside the directory in which he resides in (and not the current directory)? * It is possible to include myService.dll and IronPython.dll and IronPythonModules.dll inside myService.exe (so I could do import sys and then append to path which ever directries I wish for)? Thanks, Guy
