Message-ID: <CAA5QkMcti_b4dBb6dk_6Tpwy+xG3S53JHU6WUKPJBjhS1tZuwQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hello, I would like to catch events that Virtual Form control is firing.
For now I have managed to open it and interact with the controls that are
on this Virtual Forms.
The code and the control are here:
https://www.virtual-forms.com/python-experts-i-need-your-expertise/
Do you have any ideas how to use the event handler?
Thanks,
Davor

Message-ID: <1538501521914-0.post@n6.nabble.com>

I ahve been trying to communicate with an Instrument GUI using python and a
COM Object. This is quite simple using wincom32, but somethind with this
client required additional extension not needed in other lunguages. I wander
id someone here has experience and can explain how to solve this.in VBS,
PAscal and C# the commands are quite simple, after creting the object in
VBS: set app = CreateObject("LeCroy.XStreamDSO")in Python is similar:import
win32com.clientapp=win32com.client.Dispatch("LeCroy.XStreamDSO") done this
the object I can use is "app"the commands are in
VBS:app.Acquisition.Horizontal.MaxSamplesOrRateDownapp.Acquisition.Horizontal.MaxSamplesOrRateUpapp.Acquisition.TriggerMode
= "single"app.Measure.ClearSweepsin Python I have to add .ActNow() to make
them work to some of these commands, and I do not understand why, I will
have to
use:app.Acquisition.Horizontal.MaxSamplesOrRateDown.ActNow()app.Acquisition.Horizontal.MaxSamplesOrRateUp.ActNow()app.Acquisition.TriggerMode
= "single"app.Measure.ClearSweeps.ActNow()In C#(Visualstudio 2017)  and

Hi,

   We are using "win32com.client.Dispatch("SAPI.SpVoice")" for TTS to our
target device from a Windows 7 desktop. We are seeing many of these
exceptions: "Exception '-2147221164'".
Is there a fix for this? Basically, wanted to know the reason for this
exception and the fix for this.

Thanks,

COM exceptions are listed in hex.  -2147221164 is 0x80040154, which is E_CLASSNOTREG.  Have you installed SAPI 5.1?  It's not built-in.

That's 0x80020009, or DISP_E_EXCEPTION.? That's really telling you to 
refer to the other code for the details.

Did you actually install the SAPI SDK?? Do all 5,000 of the scripts use 
SpVoice?? Do the 300 that fail use some particular subset?? Are they all 
either 32-bit or 64-bit apps?

What does that mean?  Ordinarily, you would just register the DLL with regsvr32 once and for all.  Are you making registry changes on the fly?

Hello Tim,

   I really did not know that this value would make difference. Apologies
for the vague question. The actual exception is "-2147352567". Also, we
have around 5000 test scripts. Out of these, around 300 test scripts fails
with this exception. So, I do not doubt any system issues here.

   Thank you for your response. Appreciate it.

We use Nuance's Vocalizer Expressive for voice and sapi5.dll. Also, we
modify the "Windows registry" to refer to this dll. This issue is seen
randomly. The failures do not belong to any sub-set. The very next test
script in the same set-up would fail.

No. Not really. We don't make registry changes on the fly. We do register
the DLL with regvr32 once and for all. That's the reason we find it
strange. This error is absolutely random and there are no changes in the
set-up when this error is observed. All the 5000 test scripts are split
into different test suites. A test suite might contain 30 test scripts (on
an average). This error is so random, that will be seen in one or more test
scripts while we are executing. We figured out that this is because of
win32com. We do not have any clues further.

Subject: [python-win32] makepy Promlem? pywintypes.com_error: (-2147352573,
 'Member not found.', None, None)
Message-ID: <1aa0b703f9eb41e89e82f03da08e20e8@ATGRZSW1694.avl01.avlcorp.lan>

I have defined an MS COM interface which I want to access from within Python. I therefore have created a wrapper using the 'makepy' utility that come along with the win32com package.
[
  object,
  dual,
  ...
]
interface IPuma7ScriptContextEx : IDispatch
{
  :
  [id(21), helpstring("method GetScriptObject")]
  HRESULT GetScriptObject([in] long ContextId, [in] BSTR ModuleName, [out, retval] IPuma7Script ** ppPuma7Script);
  [id(22), helpstring("method GetScriptDispatch")]
  HRESULT GetScriptDispatch([in] long ContextId, [in] BSTR ModuleName, [out, retval] IDispatch ** ppPuma7ScriptDispatch);
  :
};

As it now turns out, the generated Python wrapper seems not to work for all member functions of the interface. It does work for function 'GetScriptObject':
>>>ScriptContextEx.GetScriptObject(0,"User")
< win32com.gen_py.AVL PUMA7 Object Model 1.0 Type Library.IPuma7Script instance at 0x59539888>

But it does not work for 'GetScriptDispatch':
>>>ScriptContextEx.GetScriptDispatch(0,"User")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "C:\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\win32com\gen_py\27E37C67-3AE4-11D5-A53E-0004AC2566F4x0x1x0\IPuma7ScriptContextEx.py", line 42, in GetScriptDispatch
, ModuleName)
pywintypes.com_error: (-2147352573, 'Member not found.', None, None)

The only apparent difference between these two functions is that the first one (that works) returns an IPuma7Script interface pointer which is also declared in the respective TLB file whereas the second one returns a 'standard' IDispatch interface pointer.
Is there a solution some around already or at least a workaround? Any help is highly welcome.

Thanks and best regards

Ludwig

Hi, I have a list of tuples containing "System.Decimal" objects (from a AdomdClient cellset). When I try to move that list to Excel using win32com.client I get the following error: "TypeError: Currency object must be a Decimal instance (got Decimal)". Other AdomdClient cellsets I pull return 'float' objects and those get moved to Excel fine. Is there a problem converting "System.Decimal" to "VT_Decimal" (or whatever com requires)?


Thank you for any help you can provide!
