[Distutils] Re: distribution of an embedding application

Hello,

I coded a simple application in C, which embeds python. Now I want to distribute this program using distutils.

In the documentation of distutils I found the usual ways to build and install python scripts and modules.

Is there a way to use distutils to build my application, too? Something like:

--8<-- from distutils.core import setup

setup(name="foo", applications=[Application("foo", ["foo.c"])])

--8<--

Not directly. But you can customize the commands that distutils uses, the py2exe setup could serve as an example. Thomas
