I gave PyInstaller a try, and it seemed to be smart and easy at first, and created a single exe that was just 8MB. The problem is that when I run the exe, It gives me the following errors before it crashes: - Fatal Error: MSVCR71.DLL! - Fatal Error: colud not be extracted. - Fatal Error: Error loading Python DLL - a message box pointing to python24.dll in a temp dir. - Fatal Error: - "Please tell microsoft about this problem." [Don't send] moving msvcr71.dll and python24.dll to the same directory didn't change anything. I'll put some more time into trying it, but my first impression isn't good. Meanwhile, I've removed numarray entirely from the project, and am using matplotlib.rcParams['numerix'] = 'numpy' and py2exe + nsis is working pretty well. I have a working single executable that is 12MB, but it takes about 18 seconds to decompress & run. If I turn off the NSIS lzw compression, then it it is a 46MB executable, and runs in about 12 seconds. I might be trying to create my own C++ wxWidgets top level application and embed wxPython & matplot lib in that. (has anyone ever had luck doing this?) Thanks, -Jim Using Tomcat but need to do more?
