In general, if you `from win32com.client.gencache import
EnsureDispatch`, you should be able to use `EnsureDispatch` anywhere you
previously used plain `Dispatch`, and that code should be automatically
generated and used for you. You generally only need to specify a special
location or run makepy manually if there's something odd about the
object which makes the above not work.

Many thanks Harald!
If I specify the file location when running makepy, how do I ensure
myapplication knows where to find them? Again this may be a silly
question, so please bear with me.
Thank you!

Hi Alok,
there should be a __gencache__ directory somewhere, which contains
the generated files.
But it is WAY easier to just use the
-o -- Create output in a specified output file. If the path
leading
to the file does not exist, any missing directories will be
created.
NOTE: -o cannot be used with -d. This will generate an
error.
parameter of makepy.py
cheers

Hi and thank you for your insightful guidance on Jannis'
question. I am running into similar issues as I work with a
3rd party COM app.
This may be a silly question but could you point me to where
the generated class files are located?
Many thanks!

Hi Jannis,
a good way forward: create less-dynamic COM-bindings by
using makepy.py
(it is part of your win32com-client installation, but
linked here for the dokumentation)
https://github.com/SublimeText/Pywin32/blob/master/lib/x32/win32com/client/makepy.py
With makepy py you can create a (very very large)
python-file, which includes rather static bindings to
reachable exposed attributes and methods.
You can then grep or strg+f through that file for
"HybridShapes" ... maybe it is just spelled differently.
Using COM things for > 2 decades, apps run much smoother
using the makepy created files than dynamic dispatch
cheers

Hello together,
I am trying to automate a point cloud creation out of
CATParts in CATIA.
The win32com client can access CATIA documents, but
NOT methods and
attributes in the parts. I get the following error:
File
"C:\Users\th80im\source\repos\PythonPointCloudCreation\PythonPointCloudCreation\PythonPointCloudCreation\py37_env_1\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py",
line 638, in __getattr__
raise AttributeError("%s.%s" % (self._username_,
attr))
AttributeError: <unknown>.HybridShapes
I guess, there is something wrong with the registering
of CATIA, or the
installation of the client? Or am I looking in the
wrong direction?
Thank you & Best Regards
ioannis
