:   return self._ApplyTypes_(0x1b, 1, (3, 0), ((8, 0),), 'DriverInit',

: included in the class:

: class ICDIntf(DispatchBaseClass):

: When i try to call it i get the error

:  File "<interactive input>", line 0, in ?
:  TypeError: unbound method must be called with class instance 1st

: I suppose its refering to the argument 'self' so, how can i get the
: class instance to pass it to the function.

Without more info, one can only suppose that your call should have been
along the lines of:

sthg = ICDIntf() # Make a class instance
sthg.DriverInit() # Call the method on the instance

Or:

sthg = ICDIntf()
ICDIntf.DriverInit( sthg ) # Call the unbound method with class 
                           # instance first argument

Or:

ICDIntf().DriverInit() # Probably useless
