Is there an Eclipse add-on to build a python executable for distribution?

Question

I want to build an executable to distribute to people without python installed on their machines.

Is there an add-on to Eclipse that allows this? I couldn't find one.

If not, do you have a builder that you recommend that would make it easy to go to my python project directory created in Eclipse, and bundle it all up?

Thanks, Mark

Answer 1

It's not eclipse, but ActiveState's ActivePython FAQ mentions the freeze utility, which sounds like it might be close to what you're asking for.

Answer 2

For Windows, there's the py2exe project.

There's bbfreeze, and PyInstaller, and py2app, also.
