Re: [Python.NET] Problem with System.ArgumentException in call to method from dll

[Barton]

Because the Python.Runtime library also provides means of embedding python in a .NET program using pinvoke to call the native python dll, it is, by nature, "unsafe".

The following variant looks much more logical to me, but than I get another error: bitmapsrc = cam.GetImage(timeout) TypeError: No method matches given arguments So it seems that I have to pass the "out"-parameter to the method as well, but that was not working either. 2013/1/22 b...@fie.us <b...@fie.us> You are setting the bitmapsrc variable to be equal to the class BitmapSource.  I assume you mean to get the value of an output parameter, rather than pass a class object into the method. Though I do not speak german.  But I think that's it.
