python - Cx Freeze - how do I convert multiple files into the build folder -

i've made program launches python program using os.startfile().

i wanted have 2 exe files, launching second using subprocess.call() instead, in 1 build folder can't find how this.

i tried making setup file both, creating 2 build folders , copying 1 of exe files other's build folder got this:

traceback (most recent call last):  file "c:\python34\lib\site-packages\cx_freeze\initscripts\__startup__.py", line 12,  in <module> __import__(name + "__init__")  importerror: no module named 'menu_record__init__' 

any ideas?

i quite sure cannot use 2 exe in 1 build folder because although dependencies in build folder same scripts different.

you can use 2 exe in same build folder script.

import sys cx_freeze import setup, executable  options = { 'build_exe': {'path': sys.path + ['modules']} }  executables = [     executable('script_1.py'),     executable('script_2.py')]  setup(     name='two exe in 1 folder',     version='0.1',     description='two exe in single build folder',     options=options,     executables=executables) 

check out other post made

also can copy second build folder in first (you need rename else not build) , call subprocess.call() second build file exe.

otherwise have heard (although have never tried it) pyinstaller or py2exe (i not sure which) can make single file exe.
