A pure Python, lightweight COM client and server framework, based on the ctypes Python FFI package.
While working with AutoCAD objects ran into app crash. It was reported sometimes as `stack overflow` or `access violation`. Investigation showed that there was a method signature generated as: ```...
The `VARIANT._get_value` method does not unpack arrays of arbitrary type. As seen [here](https://github.com/enthought/comtypes/blob/f269c84159372799cd0f8d7b0ee23f547b0b21ec/comtypes/automation.py#L455), it is assumed that the unpacked type is in the limited `_vartype_to_ctype` dictionary. This is likely the...
Default properties add syntactic sugar to interfaces, as described [here](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/az06zx4y%28v=vs.90%29.aspx). `Item` is usually a default property. Comtypes always treats `Item` as a default property, as defined [here](https://github.com/enthought/comtypes/blob/b8179ee7e6036bc00d8493d5be5d09a0ca292c9b/comtypes/__init__.py#L369), but perhaps should...
The following code fails, and I would expect it to fill the "A" column with the values 0-9. Instead, it blanks the cell values. ``` python import comtypes.client as cc...
Currently Decimal objects are converted to currency variants (VT_CY) when passed as a VARIANT argument. However, there is a decimal VARIANT (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc234586.aspx), which seems like the less surprising conversion choice....
i call a COM function waiting a uint32 with a wrong 16bits array.array('H'). The result is an access violation: File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\comtypes__init__.py", line 604, in call_with_inout v = atyp.from_param(v) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\comtypes\safearray.py",...
This bug happened to me a year ago so I'm a little fuzzy on exactly what happened, but it was a doozy. Here is some code that repros the bug...
to get server side modifications of a record marshaled back to the client. With a COM Dual Interface it is possible to get server side changes to record members marshaled...
I noticed during the bug fix for #524 that the wrapper module for `mshtml.tlb` have a considerably large file size. Given the large number of definitions in the COM type...
The function _check_ctypeslib_typecodes() in _npsupport.py returns a dictionary that is also assigned to ctypeslib._typecodes. The dictionary maps numpy dtype string representations ('i4', 'f8', etc.) to ctypes classes. The ctypeslib._typecodes dictionary...
