Are you suggesting I write C code to wrap the SetContext call with something? That’s somewhat out of my league and don’t really know how to build C or C# code (or possibly wrap it into the existing DLL code).
Python, Perl, VBScript, JavaScript, bash, batch and a few others are in my wheelhouse. I tried doing C a long time ago, but I’ve resigned myself to the truth that it’s not going to happen in my lifetime. I can read it (somewhat), but I don’t understand enough to build something useful and or know what is good or bad form. ☹ Thanks for the suggestion, though!

This value can be sent to SetContext() In [39]: alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All Out[39]: 4294967295 4294967295 = 0xFFFFFFFF A sample of the call is here: https://github.com/alphaleonis/AlphaVSS-Samples/blob/8482e83dd13cb8467860e8be199d265963aa6ab8/src/SnapshotQuery/Program.cs # this is the declaration of SetContext virtual void SetContext(VssSnapshotContext context); This is the declaration for All: VssSnapshotContext.All = 0xFFFFFFFF https://github.com/alphaleonis/AlphaVSS/blob/13462e657f7993da5c80f835d219bbe82079ce75/src/AlphaVSS.Common/Enumerations/VssSnapshotContext.cs#L58 However, this line results in a Type error In [40]: ctx = cmp.SetContext(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- TypeError Traceback (most recent call last) Input In [40], in <cell line: 1>() ----> 1 ctx = cmp.SetContext(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All) TypeError: No method matches given arguments for SetContext: (<class 'int'>) I’ve tried converting the value using: ctx = cmp.SetContext(System.Convert.ToUInt32(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All)) *And* ctx = cmp.SetContext(ctypes.c_uint32(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All).value) but the same error occurs I can get the function to succeed (albeit it doesn’t show me what I want) with this: cmp.SetContext(ctypes.c_int32(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All).value) … because ctypes.c_int32(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All).value = -1 I believe it’s possible that this could be related to the link below but I can’t be sure because I am not a C developer and I can’t determine how this was fix from the notes in the link. Granted, the author is on CentOS, and I’m on Windows… but the backstory behind the issue sounds like it’s related. https://github.com/pythonnet/pythonnet/issues/950 I’m currently running on pythonnet 2.5.2 and Python 3.9.13 (tags/v3.9.13:6de2ca5, May 17 2022, 16:36:42) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
