I was having intermittent problems creating a Python COM object that I am using
as a test/learning exercise. What I finally noticed was that when I was command
line registering the object I was not consistent in typing the name of the
python file.
Executing the DOS command line:
python TestMsgBox.py -regserver
Yields the following registry entry:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{a4c0208f-8888-11e1-ac67-b8ac6f92cf9d}\InprocServer32
PythonClass = "TestMsgBox.TestMsgBox"
Executing the DOS command line:
python TestMsgBox.py -regserver
Is the above correct, or did you mean to say "python testmsgbox.py" there?
If you did then I can guess how comtypes would come to that conclusion -
python itself will think the filename is "testmsgbox.py". pywin32 has
code specifically to work around this - in win32com\server\register.py
there is:
moduleName = os.path.splitext(win32api.FindFiles(sys.argv[0])[0][8])[0]
which will give back the actual filename rather than the one specified.
I'd see if you can find a comtypes specific mailing-list and ask the
question...
...
class TestMsgBox( comtypes.IUnknown ):
_case_insensitive_ = True
Again, I know almost zero about comtypes, but I wouldn't expect the
above to have any bearing on the case of the module filename - I'd guess
that this controls whether the method/property names should be
considered case sensitive (ie, whether yourobject.Foo() and
yourobject.foo()) both call the same method.

UseCommandLine(TestMsgBox)
I don't know if this was intended behavior but I had not seen it documented.
