Answer 1

function from the python config file updated and loaded dynamically outside the environment of exe

import os
extDataDir = os.getcwd()
ext_config = os.path.join(extDataDir, '', 'configfile.py')


def importCode(code,name,add_to_sys_modules=0):
    import sys,imp

    module = imp.new_module(name)

    exec(code,module.__dict__)
    if add_to_sys_modules:
        sys.modules[name] = module

    return module

configfile_rd = open(ext_config, "r")
configfile_code = configfile_rd.read()
configfile = importCode(configfile_code,"configfile") #dynamically readed the config file from exe and execute the python file configfile.py and working as well as import configfile

constant = configfile.variables()
