I use comtypes.automation to access an IDispatch object in an
out-of-process server and it seems to me as if the GIL is not unlocked
during the call. Thus when trying to invoke multiple calls on IDispatch
objects the calls are synchronized by the GIL and all calls block if one of
the server's methods blocks.
I tried to figure myself how the GIL is handled by comtypes, but this seems
to hidden somewhere down the layers in the ctypes implementation.
Does my problem make sense and it is a known issue with the GIL? Or should
I look harder for some other cause for my calls being synchronized?
Thanks in advance,
Uri
