Commercial application/games with Python

[spaceman76]

Dear all,

It's possible to create with Python commercial application/games ?
When i create a myApplication.sis inside there are three files:

1) "default.py"
2) "myApplication.app"
3) "myApplication.rsc"

Inside default.py there is my source code.
There is a way to create an myApplication.sis without my source code ?

Thank you.

Try precompiling your app into a .pyc file (or for a slight performance and size gain, .pyo file). .pyc and .pyo files are platform-independent Python bytecode files, so you can compile your scripts to .pyc or .pyo files on a PC and then package them to a .sis. They should work on the phone too, as long as you use Python 2.2.2 for compilation on the PC side.

Sorry, please Admin delete my post.

"default.py" doesn't contains my source code , it's a simple launch script.

no, when you create standalone app, default.py really contains the source

Yes, it's right but sometime py2sis.exe doesn't works very good. It insert into sis this default.py. For this reason sometime
i see my source code other that code.

See this thread:

I suspect this is your problem:

"
There is also one defect in "py2sis":

If you have a file named "default.py" in the same folder were you are invoking "py2sis" with some other script as argument (e.g. "foobar.py) it will always place script "default.py" to the created SIS file and not the one given as command line parameter (e.g. "foobar.py").

sorry then, I don't use py2sis to make standalones

Thank you, now works correctly.

So to create a commercial application i must
follow these steps:
1) create myApplication and precompiling into a myApplication.pyc file.
2) create startMyApplication.py that execute myApplication.pyc.
3) py2sis startMyApplication.py to create startMyApplication.sis.
4) Unzip startMyApplication.sis to insert into myApplication.pyc in /system/libs/.
5) Create myApplication.sis and then install it.

There are other solutions ?

Sorry but what tools do you use to make standalones python applications ?

You can also give a directory name to py2sis to package all files in that directory.

at first I used just the default.py feature,but this was slow and i needed pc. now i use this http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/fo...threadid=57553 (see my post there)
