OK. In my case, the "wrapper" and Python extension is Hammond's win32com Dispatch. Question: to your knowledge, would it work to run the message pumping loop in a different thread from the one that creates and calls the COM object? I think this would simplify things a bit. -- Don Dwiggins Advanced Publishing Technology _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
