hi all
i install python and pyinstaller on cygwin , and i can run pyinstaller
successfully to compile a exe file on the cygwin environment .
but when i launch this executable file on window with double click , it
occur a error and tell me the program can not find "cygwin.dll" (i can
not remember what it exactly is ).
can cygwin compile a windows python executable program .or we should
treat cygwin like a pure linux OS that all things we have done on it
just compatible with linux only
best regards
yuanxin.liang

have you tried to run it from the Cygwin terminal (aka Mintty) ?
Running from explorer (double click) do not properly set the
PATH variable for cygwin programs.

yes, i tried , the program can start at less, and it stop for unable to
find a file , because the format of path of the file is wrong, i use
open(path+r"\\"+filename,"rb"), but the program explain it as
c:\xxx\xxx\xxx////filename,that is wired . and if i compile this source
code under cmd. it works well .
also, i notice when i compile the program on cygwin with command
pyinstaller -F example.py , there is a error that program can not find
module win32com, and it still completed the compilation .
i thinks that might be the reason why the executable file which compiled
under Cygwin can not run properly .
module win32com might be supported by pywin32 , i try to pip install
pywin32 , but i was told there was no satisfies version . and i try pip
search pywin32 , the resule as below:
$ pip search pywin32
PLUIE-new-realease-0.5 (0.5) - a GUI for Python, via IE with Pywin32
pywin32-ctypes (0.0.1) - UNKNOWN
PLUIE-new-realease (0.5) - a GUI for Python, via IE with Pywin32
PLUIE (0.89) - a GUI for Python, via IE with Pywin32
pywin32 (214) - Python extensions for Windows
there is a pywin32 in the repository .
the next . i tried to compile pywin32 myself , unfortunately , i did not
find the source code . only .exe file which is for the windows platform
. i remember i installed a pywin32.exe on my windows OS , that meet the
thing i said above , program compile under cmd can run properly .
from the what i experienced, i begin to doubt if if Cygwin can compile a
python executable file for windows .

I don't think pyinstaller knows anything about Cygwin explicitly.
Instead, you need to list all DLLs used by your program (namely
cygwin1.dll, possibly others) in the spec file for your installer, so
that it copies them into the package too.
You can use the cygcheck program to check exactly which DLLs are
required by the executables in your program. For example you will
also likely need Cygwin's libpythonXY.dll, and possibly others.

i tried cygcheck , there was no error report from it .
and i check my program again, the error info is , program can not find
cygwin1.dll,
i check that fell,it is under c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
cygcheck can also find it .

You need to make sure that cygwin1.dll and any other required DLLs are
bundled with your application, preferably in the same directory, or
else it won't be able to find them. There's a good tutorial here:
