Hi,
When trying to use win32com functionality with Python2.4, the
interpreter often crashes!
I don't know if it's a known problem already that will be fixed in an
upcoming Python2.4.1 version.
Basically, the problem is:
makepy.py generates a (large, nearly 2mb) Python file for use with COM
interfaces of an MS Excel. Generating the file seems to work fine.
However, when trying to import this file, the interpreter crashes
trying to compile it into a .pyc file.
The same file gives no such problems with Python 2.3.5.
I first just used makepy.py with Python2.4, but it crashed after
generating a large Python file.
Then I created the file using python2.3.5, and copied it to my
python2.4 installation, and that crashes python2.4 when importing it.
So as I said before: is this a known problem already fixed for the next
release, or should I collect crash-information for this problem?
cheers,
--Tim

There's a bug in the tokenizer that's triggered by the long
lines generated by makepy. See http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index...18&atid=551954
and www.python.org/sf/1089395

Hi,
I've been going over the Quick Start to Client side COM and Python and many
other sources, but cannot find an example that will get my com/ActiveX .ocx
USB device driver imported.
The Excel and Word examples run fine.
win32com.client.Dispatch("Excel.Application") etc., but how does one know
the ("<foo>.<bar>") to type in? Excel looks only vaguely like
"Excel.Application" in the com browser.

This is a heads-up on a possible memory corruption type of bug in
recent and present versions of Python/win32com. I dont know if its
general, or specific to using win32com.client to access CDO as my
example does.
My script was tiny - it just opens a MAPI/CDO session and traverses
the email folders - but it keeps crashing Python at random places.
After 2 days of trying everything without success, I've finally
discovered that it depends...

Can anybody help ?

I have compiled my boost-enabled C++ module and have it working when I
explicity set my LD_LIBRARY_PATH before invoking the python2.4

I have been having problems with the Python 2.4 and 2.5 interpreters
on both Linux and Windows crashing on me. Unfortunately it's rather
complex code and difficult to pin down the source.
So I've been trying to reduce the code. In the process it's started to
crash in different ways. I'm not sure if any of it is related. The
following is only crashing Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Sep 19 2006,
09:52:17) on win32 in two different(?)
ways.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
