Python COM Object

[Simon Withers]

I am experimenting with the python com server found in programming
python second edition (comserver.py) - it looks to be essentially the
same as all the other python com server examples that I have seen.

When I use the com server from within a python script ie:
    from win32com.client import Dispatch
    server = Dispatch('PythonServers.MyServer')

it works fine, however when I use the com server from somewhere else
say within jscript ie:
    var server = new ActiveXObject('PythonServers.MyServer');
I get an 'Automation server can't create object' error.

I have registered the server using:
    from win32com.server.register import UseCommandLine
    UseCommandLine(pyclass)

and a search of my registry finds what look to be appropriate values.

I am at a loss as to why I cannot use the python com server in
non-python contexts.
