Hello all,
I am looking for a way to statically compile pythonxx.dll into my C++
application, so that I can use It as an internal scripting language
and either run the native python code or take an ELF from
py2exe/pyinstaller and run that.
The machines that will have my C++ app running on them do not have
python and I cannot install it as part of my application. Any Ideas?

Sure, that's easy.

That should do what I think you want.
Picky note: The phrase "statically compile pythonxx.dll into my C++
application" is not quite correct. A DLL is dynamically linked, not
statically linked. All this means is that you ship pythonxx.dll with
your application along with any other DLLs and pyd files you might
need. But don't worry, you can do what you want.
Terms:
Embedding = Using python inside an application that is written in
another language (usually C/C++). This is what you are asking about.
Extending = Making your C/C++ code callable from python. (there are
actually several alternatives available, but that is another topic).
Enjoy,
Ken
