Hi all, I've just uploaded bbfreeze 0.95.3 to python's cheeseshop. bbfreeze creates standalone executables from python scripts. It's similar in functionality to py2exe or cx_Freeze.
This release fixes some issues with pythoncom on win32. It also now uses "automatic pathname rewriting" for code objects (see below). support for egg files: bbfreeze scans zipped egg files and now includes whole egg files/directories in the distribution. Programs using setuptools' pkg_resources module will now work. It offers the following features: easy installation bbfreeze can be installed with setuptools' easy_install command. zip/egg file import tracking bbfreeze tracks imports from zip files. multiple script freezing bbfreeze can freeze multiple scripts at once. python interpreter included bbfreeze will create an extra executable named 'py', which might be used like the python executable itself. *NEW* automatic pathname rewriting pathnames in tracebacks are replaced with relative pathnames (i.e. if you import package foo.bar from /home/jdoe/pylib/ tracebacks generated from functions in foo.bar will not show your local path /home/jdoe/pylib/foo/bar.py. They will instead show foo/bar.py) bbfreeze works on windows and UNIX-like operating systems. It currently does not work on OS X. bbfreeze has been tested with python 2.4 and 2.5. bbfreeze will not work with python versions prior to 2.3 as it uses the zipimport feature introduced with python 2.3.
