Hi, I am trying to automate Lotus Notes using comtypes and want to handle error conditions (e.g. wrong password) by catching COM exceptions. Unfortunately, Lotus Notes always gives error code -2147217504. So I decided to check the error description. Following is a sample COMError object:
COMError(-2147217504, None, (u'Notes error: Wrong Password. (Passwords are case sensitive - be sure to use correct upper and lower case.)', u'NotesSession', None, 0, None)) I checked the code of COMError in http://svn.python.org/view/python/tags/r251/Modules/_ctypes/_ctypes.c?rev=54864&view=auto and is seems to me that COMError objects should have "hresult, text, details" attributes. However, the COMError object I caught had only args attribute. My questions are: 1. err.args[2][0] returns description. Can I get away with using err.args[2][0] without checking for error bounds (assuming only COMError is caught)? 2. Will COMError grow "hresult, text, details" attributes in future?
