Hi, I have several apps that I distribute to customers using py2exe. I have also written modules which these apps share. Up to now I have not had any modules written in C so to build my py2exe apps I just set the PYTHONPATH environment variable to point to the module's location in CVS and run setup.py py2exe. This is convenient because release builds are done via Buildbot on a dedicated computer. All buildbot has to do is check out the source and run setup.py. I now have my first C module and have been trying to work out how to deal with building the module. I would prefer to build the module and 'release' it for use with my two apps. What I would like to do is build up an egg for the library and copy it to a known location. Then have the apps use the setuptools require_install directive to allow me to get the egg and 'install' it into the build directory somewhere and then let the rest of the py2exe magic work. I think I know where to add my call into setuptools from py2exe, but I cannot figure out what setup_tools function to call in order to do the 'installation'. Any help in executing my plan or in telling me I am a morron because there is some easier way to do this would be much appreciated. -Chris
