Hi Thomas,
Support for getEvents/showEvents would be great with dynDispatch.
However I must admit, that I didn't realize that it was possible to
support events purely with IDispatch.
My project doesn't technically rely on support for COM events in the
places where we use IDispatch, though that is not to say it won't in the
future.
But, I think that releasing a comtypes with dynDispatch so far is a
great step forward, even with out events. Of course, then at a later
stage if events were added that would also be great.
Thanks
Mick
