Making a python package and cross-platform compatible
Hi Ive been trying for days now and i just cannot work this out.

Can someone please tell me if im doing this right.

I've written some python3.3 code and now i want to transfer it to an embedded computer to execute.

My OS is a : Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.7 (squeezez) 32-bit kernel
Compiler gcc 4.4.4 and gcc 4.4.5


The target computer is : Linux 2.6.9 32bit cpu.
Compiler gcc 3.3.2

So i have the .py files. I install cx_freeze with python3.3.

I then use cxfreese file.py, which create a folder called dist with a bunch of files and a executable.

Now from my understanding everything it needs to run is inside that folder?
So how come when i transfer over to the target computer it says " cannot execute binary file"

is this todo with them haveing diffrent compilers? how do i update the target computers compiler when there is no apt-get or dpkg facility?

Please someone save Smilie

NAME

       pycentral - register and build utility for Python packages

SYNOPSIS

       pycentral [-h] [-v] <cmd> [<cmd options>] [<args>]

DESCRIPTION

       pycentral
	provides support for installing python modules independent
	of the current installed Python version and handling
	byte-compilation and -removal tasks in installation scripts.

OPTIONS

       -v, --version
	      Limit the output to the version numbers of the python versions.

       -h, --help
	      Print a help text.

       pycentral has the following sub commands. For fine grained help, call: pycentral <cmd>.

       bccompile
	      Byte compile .py files in a package.

       bcremove
	      Remove the byte compiled .py files.

       list   List all managed files.

       pkginstall
	      Make a package available for all supported runtimes.

       pkgprepare
	      Prepare a package for all supported runtimes.

       pkgremove
	      Remove a package installed for all supported runtimes.

       pkglist
	      List pycentral-managed files of a package for all supported runtimes.

       rtinstall
	      Make installed packages available for this runtime.

       rtremove

       updatedefault

       debhelper
	      move files to pycentral locaation, variable substitutions (called by dh_pycentral).

       pycentraldir <package>
	      Show the installation directory used by pycentral for <package>.

       showdefault
	      Show default python version number. Deprecated, use pyversions(1)

       showsupported
	      Show the supported python versions. Deprecated, use pyversions(1)

       showversions
	      Show version numbers of supported python versions.  Deprecated, use pyversions(1) dh_pycentral, should not be called directly).

       version
	      Show the pycentral version.

FILES

       /etc/python/debian_config   is	searched   for	 the   attribute   overwrite-local.    If   set   to   1,   or	True,  existing  files	in
       /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/*-packages are overwritten with symbolic links to the pycentral install area. The default is to abort  the  installation
       of  a  package,	when files already exist. This behaviour may be useful, when python libraries were manually installed into this directory.
       The attribute byte-compile can be set to a comma separated list of the values standard and optimze to indicate how files  should  be  byte-
       compiled.
