py2exe:将Python程序转化成exe可执行程序的小工具

py2exe是一种python发布工具，可以把python脚本转换成windows下的可执行程序，不需要安装python便可运行。
py2exe现在可以用来创建使用了wxPython, Tkinter, Pmw, PyGTK, pygame, win32com client and server 等模块的程序。

1. 下载安装py2exe

py2exe目前的版本是0.6.9，根据你安装的python的版本选择下载的文件
比如我用是py2exe-0.6.9.win32-py2.6.exe

安装后的文件应该在你的python安装目录下的Lib\site-packages\py2exe

2. 使用py2exe
我们先准备一个简单的python程序hello.py

# hello.py
def main():
print "Hello, World!"

if __name__ == ‘__main__’:
main()

然后为使用py2exe写一个脚本setup.py

# setup.py
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe

setup(console=["hello.py"])

运行setup.py，记得要传一个参数给它

python setup.py py2exe

应该看到一些输出信息

py2exe会在当前目录下生成两个目录 build和dist
build里是一些py2exe运行时产生的中间文件，dist里有最终的可执行文件

library.zip
w9xpopen.exe
python23.dll
hello.exe

现在可以运行hello.exe了

E:\Projects\WorkSpace\Python\dist>hello
Hello, World!

不过记得如果要发布到别的机器上时，library.zip、 w9xpopen.exe、python23.dll这几个文件是必须要和hello.exe在一起的。

好了，这次先到这里，下次我们做一个wxPython的例子

最后，大家试试运行

python setup.py py2exe –help
