Utilizing a raw IDispatch Pointer from Python

I have a C++ application that creates a collection of COM objects.

I would like to give the Python interpreter access to these interfaces that were
created in C++ land.

Stated another way, how can I have Python consume a IDispatch pointer from C++
and wrap it with one of those nice Python classes automatically?

Thanks in advance.

I am working with the MSHTML editor control. I used win32com.client.gencache.EnsureModule on the MSHTML type library to generate the necessary IDispatch support for all the various interfaces used by MSHTML. I have just implemented some of the necessary custom COM interfaces/gateways to allow me to take control of MSHTML's right-click menu. One of the callbacks that MSHTML makes (and I've implemented) is

Hello. I got a little problem while using pythoncom to automate IE; for some reason, changing the 'selectedIndex' on an instance of IHTMLSelectElement doesn't fire the 'onchange' event (I guess this is a bug in mshtml). So, I tried to get the 'onchange' event handler and call it myself. According to the docs, this is a simple IDispatch implementation and calling Invoke() should do the trick; I actually have a working example of this in...

I've got an out-of-process COM server (EXE) that I want to be able to control from Visual Basic. I can already control it from a C/C++ app without any issues. Under VBA in MS Access 2000, which I think is similar to VB6, I'm able to get things to work, but now under VB 2005 (Visual Studio 2005) I can't get the same to work. Here is what I'm doing: 1. Because the COM server only registers with the running object table, but doesn't...

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,...
