[continuing on answering my own questions in case someone else encounters
this problem in the future]
So the answer to the logging question is that the logging output goes
whereever you configure it to go to! I had a deep-rooted assumption
(incorrect) that the diagnostic output was viewable with the windows trace
tool in pythonwin (this is true for pythoncom aka win32com)
logging.basicConfig(filename='C:/ftp/action.log',level=logging.DEBUG)
logging.getLogger('.').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
The problem quickly reveals itself and it seems that my class is not
implementing IUnknown.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\comtypes\_comobject.py", line 62,
in
call_with_this
result = mth(*args, **kw)
File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\comtypes\server\inprocserver.py",
line 23, in IClassFactory_CreateInstance
result = self._cls().IUnknown_QueryInterface(None, riid, ppv)
AttributeError: 'Action' object has no attribute
'IUnknown_QueryInterface'
I assume that I have messed up some of the attributes in my implmentation
class. My assumption is that if I want to implement the ISmartTagAction
from MSTAG.TLB ({9B92EB61-CBC1-11D3-8C2D-00A0CC37B591}), that I derive
from comtypes.gen.SmartTagLib.ISmartTagAction and implement all the
entry-points (cut and paste and uncomment from the code template in the
comments of the file in comtypes.gen)
Full diagnostic output (what a joy to have debug now!) appended.
