Thank you Barry,

but I see that the the way yo do it is dropping files to disk. I want to prevent any file to touch the disk except for the actual binary that has everything embedded in it.

What file are you refering to? The zip is built onto the elf/exe. BTW this is all off topic for python ideas. You might want to take this offline. Barry

Cheers

Hi,

thank you for your response. I've downloaded the sources but I couldn't find any documentation. In addition I see that there is not a single C/C++ file. What I want to do is calling python from C. Am I missing something?

You need to grab the sources with an svn checkout. I guess you grabbed the binary kit.

Docs are in here.

Works up to python 2.7. I ended up taking over when Gordon stopped maintaining it and kept it going up to python 2.7. In principle the same ideas could be made to work in python 3 I believe.

The zip file is appended to the end of the .EXE or unix ELF fie. The boot strap knows how to import form the ZIP at the end of the binary.

It also has a way to split out the .SO/.DLL files from the ZIP and allow them to be loaded. Single EXE mode.

There are docs that explain how it works in the sources.

Does the zip need to reside in disk to be loaded. Or can it be loaded from memory? I don't want it to be loaded from disk but from Memory

Right?
