py2exe version 0.9.2.2 released
===============================
`py2exe` is a distutils extension which allows to build standalone
Windows executable programs (32-bit and 64-bit) from Python scripts;
Python 3.3 and later are supported. It can build console executables,
windows (GUI) executables, windows services, and DLL/EXE COM servers.
(For Python 2.3 - 2.7 the older version 0.6.9 is still available.)
Changes in version 0.9.2.2:
- Added support for six, cffi, pycparser, openssl.
- The cmdline_style options for windows services ("py2exe", "pywin32",
"custom") should work again.
- Several bugfixes, better error messages.
News for py2exe 0.9.2:
- brand new implementation, written from scratch for Python 3
- py2exe now supports Python 3.3 and 3.4
- can be installed with 'pip' since py2exe is released in wheel format
(in addition to a source package and bdist_wininst installers)
- less warnings from the build process thanks to a hooks module which
contains knowledge about some often used packages
- easy start: executables can now be built with a simple command line
script; no need to write a setup-script from scratch. In fact a
commented setup-script can now be autogenerated
- py2exe does now find Python modules even in zipped eggs
Short manual and download at the Python cheeseshop (or simply install
or upgrade it with 'pip install -U py2exe'):
