Hello All,I'm trying to write a Python program that uses a provided ActiveX component. I have verified the component works ok with Visual Basic. I have used makepy to build the import module for my ActiveX component. I can successfully load the component via the ActiveXCtrl class found in wxPython. My issue is how to call one of the methods of the ActiveX component. The method requires a pointer to a variant. Excerpt from the makepy created module: def OpenUSB(self, lWarning= defaultNamedNotOptArg): return self._oleobj_.InvokeTypes(1, LCID, 1, (3, 0), ((16387, 0),),lWarning) As you can see, the first arg is a VT_BYREF | VT_I4.
You should find that you don't need to supply the argument at all - win32com should initialize and provide the param for you and return the final result in the return value - assuming the param is an 'out' param.
