How to use cx_Freeze if the file packaged is not a .pyc file, but a. pyd file?

Are there any parameters that can be used directly

I do not understand what you want. Maybe the answer is in the documentation.

.py: usually the input source code you wrote.
.pyc: is the compiled bytecode. If you import a module, Python will build a *.pyc file that contains the bytecode to make it easier and faster later.
.pyd: It's basically a Windows dll file.

Can we output pyd files

[marcelotduarte]

Yes, using Cython. If you have a module .py (or .pyx) you can make .pyd with Cython, then use cx_Freeze to make the executable, the .pyd is automatically chosen.

Using cx_ Freeze Can't you directly create output for pyd files?

[marcelotduarte]

No. But, the creation of .py to .pyd and the build can be made in the setup.py used to build the executable.
To convert a .py to C and build a .pyd (.dll) is a bit complex, so exist Cython and others. I used Cython.

Ok.
