BTW, what version of comtypes are you using? ``` python >>> import comtypes >>> print comtypes.__version__ ```

Another possibility is that `Item` is not being treated as a property because it is not marked as a property. It is given id 0, however, which usually signifies a...

That is helpful, thanks. Can you check one more tweak for me? Do you still get the crash if you change the generated code to the following? ``` python IAcadBlock._methods_...

Another data point, [this blog post](http://adndevblog.typepad.com/autocad/2013/03/iterate-each-iacadblock-in-iacadblocks-using-activex-in-c.html) shows that the `VARIANT` is not expected to be a `POINTER`. I cannot say why your workaround works.

Indeed, they are calling different things. I checked, and as you suspected, the call signatures for accessing the blocks or items in a block are the same. The pass-by-reference answer...

The typelib should define the proper calling signature, and in light of [issue20160](http://bugs.python.org/issue20160) it probably does. Passing a `POINTER(VARIANT)` and `VARIANT` in the first 4 arguments of a function should...

In the first case, the VARIANT type is identified as `VT_ARRAY | VT_VARIANT`. In the second it is identified as `VT_ARRAY | VT_I4`. In both cases the array comes back...

Sorry for the delayed response. I think a service that is open to many projects, like ReadTheDocs, is the best option. Hosting on the Enthought site would not be ideal...

This is exciting news for the project. I can see this being used in many ways, from directly funding the developers, funding bounties, paying interns, ... It depends on the...

No objections.
