I am trying to "freeze" a Python 3 file that uses PyGObject and Gdk/Gtk. Here is the Python script:
from gi.repository import Gtk, Gdk
class Handler:
def onDeleteWindow(self, *args):
Gtk.main_quit(*args)
def searchPressed(self, button):
print("Hello World!")
builder = Gtk.Builder()
builder.add_from_file("glade/test.glade")
builder.connect_signals(Handler())
window = builder.get_object("window1")
style_provider = Gtk.CssProvider()
window.set_name("window1")
css = """
#window1 {
background-color: #777777;
}
"""
style_provider.load_from_data(css.encode())
Gtk.StyleContext.add_provider_for_screen(
Gdk.Screen.get_default(),
style_provider,
Gtk.STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_APPLICATION
)
window.show_all()
Gtk.main()
And here is my setup.py:
import os, site, sys
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
## Get the site-package folder, not everybody will install
## Python into C:\PythonXX
site_dir = site.getsitepackages()[1]
include_dll_path = os.path.join(site_dir, "gnome")
## Collect the list of missing dll when cx_freeze builds the app
missing_dll = ['libgtk-3-0.dll',
'libgdk-3-0.dll',
'libatk-1.0-0.dll',
'libcairo-gobject-2.dll',
'libgdk_pixbuf-2.0-0.dll',
'libjpeg-8.dll',
'libpango-1.0-0.dll',
'libpangocairo-1.0-0.dll',
'libpangoft2-1.0-0.dll',
'libpangowin32-1.0-0.dll',
]
## We also need to add the glade folder, cx_freeze will walk
## into it and copy all the necessary files
glade_folder = 'glade'
## We need to add all the libraries too (for themes, etc..)
gtk_libs = ['etc',
'lib',
'share',
'lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0',
'lib/girepository-1.0',
'share/glib-2.0'
]
## Create the list of includes as cx_freeze likes
include_files = []
for dll in missing_dll:
include_files.append((os.path.join(include_dll_path, dll), dll))
## Let's add glade folder and files
include_files.append((glade_folder, glade_folder))
## Let's add gtk libraries folders and files
for lib in gtk_libs:
include_files.append((os.path.join(include_dll_path, lib), lib))
base = None
## Lets not open the console while running the app
if sys.platform == "win32":
base = "Win32GUI"
executables = [
Executable("gtktest.py",
base=base
)
]
buildOptions = dict(
compressed = False,
includes = ["gi"],
packages = ["gi"],
include_files = include_files
)
setup(
name = "gtktest",
author = "Monty Python",
version = "1.0",
description = "GTK test",
options = dict(build_exe = buildOptions),
executables = executables
)
This appears to build successfully. However, when I run the executable file, I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to solving this problem? I'm not sure where I'm going wrong as I've tried to include all the missing DLLs but it still refuses to work. Alternatively, if anyone can point to a better method of packaging this as an executable, that would be appreciated too. I've tried py2exe but had no luck there either.
Thanks in advance.
