Everyone suggests switch from py2exe to PyInstaller for making a standalone executable from Python scripts. Our first trial is to make a wxPython application which makes usage of lots of 2 stage creation with XRC. It seems the building process of PyInstaller doesn't include those modules specified in .xrc files and I am wondering if we can utilize hidden imports feature or other alternatives. Any ideas?

PyInstaller's documentation also explains how to include and exclude stuff:
My guess is you need to explicitly include wx.xrc

Interestly, I still couldn't figure out how to ask PyInstaller include some modules explicitly cause my issues is not wx.xrc, but the declared subclass in some .xrc files. – Drake Guan Mar 17 '11 at 05:35

Can you provide a simple sample app? – Mike Driscoll Mar 17 '11 at 12:55
