#36 Support for VT_RECORD in universal gateway

[Michael Dubner]

I'm interested in implementing this, and started
working on it.
If someone already near implementation - please inform
here.

I don't know of anyone working on this. What approach are
you taking?

I want to do something as simple as following:

RCS file:
/cvsroot/pywin32/pywin32/com/win32com/src/univgw_dataconv.cpp,v
retrieving revision 1.9
diff -p -s -r1.9 univgw_dataconv.cpp
*** univgw_dataconv.cpp 27 Jun 2005 11:02:41 -0000 1.9
--- univgw_dataconv.cpp 13 Dec 2005 02:56:26 -0000
*************** PyObject * dataconv_WriteFromOutTuple(Py
*** 301,306 ****
--- 301,315 ----
}
break;
}
+ case VT_RECORD:
+ {
+ BOOL PyObject_AsRecordData(PyObject
*ob, void **data);
+ if (
!PyObject_AsRecordData(obOutValue, pbArg) )
+ {
+ goto Error;
+ }
+ break;
+ }
case VT_BSTR:
{
// This is the normal "BSTR" case,
we can't

Do you know any reason this would fail?
I can't check now - pywin32 doesn't compiles neither under
VC toolkit, nor under mingw.

I guess that should work :) Ideally the test suite should
also arrange for this to be called so we know it works and
always remains working.
