Dear Robin,
A call to "sys.setdefaultencoding('iso-8859-1')", which is the only row (in
addition to the sys module import) in my sitecustomize.py, seems not to be
allowed inside the startup script. If i put it before the call to
"wx.PySimpleApp()" the application crashes with a disallowed NULL pointer
access, putting it after the instanciation of the application class results
in a traceback that the sys module doesn't contain an attribute called
"setdefaultencoding", which matches well all documentation i read about
changing the global unicode setting. But maybe you ment to put it somewhere
else in the code..?
Help is still appreciated. Thank you.
Best regards
Oliver

Dear List,
In a current project i use minidom to import and parse a project XML file
and fill up the user interface with these values. For my python
installation
(Python 2.3.3, wxPython 2.5.1.5) I use a sitecustomize.py file to set the
internal string codec globally to "iso-8859-1". The XML parser in the
distributed project (generated with py2exe) fails with the well known
error
"ordinal not in range (128)" etc.
I was looking around the net and found many threads about this issue, but
i'm still uncomfortable with the answers. So there's just a very simple
question and maybe somebody has got the answer:
Can I customize the unicode codec in the standalone application generated
with py2exe or ain't that possible, even not in a future release of
py2exe?
In the setup.py i already defined
options={"py2exe":{"packages":["encodings"]...
and all string codecs are well contained in the project. If the global
unicode setting cannot be customized there is only the call to encode()
decode() to those strings, am i right? This would cause a lot of work,
though...
Why not move the code you put in sitecustomize.py into the startup code
of your app?
