Hello, First, hats off to comtypes, and ctypes which is such a great addition to Python's stdlib!
I just recently started playing with comtypes trying to automate processing of some data sets in Excel-Access-Matlab combination. I noticed that there are some missing methods in generated interface for Matlab automation server component. If I use CreateObject() with dynamic=True everything works fine though. The problem seems to be in tlbparser.Parser.ParseDispatch() fcn where it skips first 7 methods if first method listed is QueryInterface. Matlab's tlb lists only the IUnknown methods (QueryInterface, AddRef, Release), but not the IDispatch methods, so next four methods after the 3 IUnknown methods from the interface are skipped. There's a quick patch in attachment, I ran test_client.py, test_excel.py and test_word.py on patched version and there were no errors. Cheers,
comtypes_skip_IDispatch_methods.patch
