| I have a script using win32com. An instance of a COM object is loaded. As part of the load, the server loads an instance of another com object. The server has a get property returning the IDisp of the server loaded object. In a def, the get property is used thus:- ocp.Msg1001.Data where, ocp is the Python loaded ocject and Msg1001 is the serverloaded object. As soon as the def ends, Python garbage collects ocp.Msg1001 rendering it unusable. If I create a variable in __main of ocp.Msg1001, all is well. The problem is caused by the fact that Python cannot tell between a com instance it created and one it has been passed. | ||

| Logged In: YES user_id=14198 I am afraid I can't understand this. What I do understand seems to be working correctly. There is no email address where I can get further information. Anonymous - please either add a bug in the ActivePython bug database (please include sample code) or mail me directly. |
