COM makepy util finds multiple versions of my COM object

Hi,

I have a problem where an earlier version of my Com object is being
used by makepy for early binding. In makepy I see -

MyCom (1.0)
MyCom (1.0)
MyCom (2.0)

I created version 2 of my Com object hoping that this would solve the
problem but makepy is still using an earlier version. I can solve the
problem by editing the registry, but this problem now exists on a
number of computers...

Any ideas as to how I might solve this one?

I'm using build 210 of pythonwin.

Thanks for your help,

Barry.

Is your MyCom object also in Python? The only way this can happen is if
you are generating different GUIDs every time you register the thing. If
so, you need to unregister the old version before you register a new one.

Does makepy always respect versioning of interfaces? It appears as though makepy correctly handles versioning of objects you obtain directly, but not for objects you get via a function call. Here's a simple example to illustrate the point. I created the C++-based server for this example by pilfering some code in Andrew Troelsen's book on COM and ATL. car = Dispatch("ScriptibleCoCar.DualCoCar") person =...

Has anyone seen this? When I run the COM Makepy utility and choose Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library (1.3), I get an application error message: PythonWin: Pythonwin.exe - Application Error The instruction at "0x77fcc87" referenced memory at "0x0307a705".

Hi I am trying to use makepy to generate wrappers from *.tlb for examples for GoogleDesktopSearch SDK (http://desktop.google.com/downloadsdksubmit). However makepy generates only very short __init__.py and no other files. Unfortunately, I am quite new both to Python and COM and can hardly guess what's wrong :( Please, help.
