[Jython-users] Problems importing win32com module. HELP!

[Freeze, D. <der...@ma...>]

Trying to execute some python in a Java program I have. This code
uses the win32com module to access a COM component. The interpreter
has no problem finding the win32com module (I set the python.path
on the command line when I start the JVM, -dpython.path).

When the win32com module is loaded it attempts to load win32api
module in another directory, and an exception occurs.

Here's a snippet of my code:
===========================================================================
  public static void main(String []args) throws PyException
  {
      PythonInterpreter interp = new PythonInterpreter();

      System.out.println("Loading Python modules...");
      interp.exec("import sys; print sys.path");

      interp.exec("import win32com.client");
      interp.exec("x1 = win32com.client.Dispatch(\"MyApp.1\")");

  }
===========================================================================

output (with error) is:
