Hi, I'm trying to use python to work with the various ESRI (the GIS folks) com libraries. However, I'm running into some difficulties.
I've run makepy on the type library I'm interested in working with and that yields: ... # This CoClass is known by the name 'esriSystem.AoInitialize.1' class AoInitialize(CoClassBaseClass): # A CoClass ... But dispatching to that >>> client.Dispatch("esriSystem.AoInitialize.1") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<interactive input>", line 1, in <module> File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\__init__.py", line 95, in Dispatch dispatch, userName = dynamic._GetGoodDispatchAndUserName (dispatch,userName,clsctx) File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 98, in _GetGoodDispatchAndUserName return (_GetGoodDispatch(IDispatch, clsctx), userName) File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 78, in _GetGoodDispatch IDispatch = pythoncom.CoCreateInstance(IDispatch, None, clsctx, pythoncom.IID_IDispatch) com_error: (-2147467262, 'No such interface supported', None, None) I'm assuming that this is because this doesn't implement IDispatch. The relevant VB code does: Set m_pAoInitialize = New AoInitialize Is there any equivalent in win32com (or even ctypes) that I can use to get this working or is Python out of the question here? thanks very much, Nick _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
