Summary: gencache and Delphi Currency

Initial Comment:
Delphi snippet:
procedure Setprice(PriceLevel: Smallint;
pVal: Currency);
	
As pywin32-210's makepy and gencache comes:
def Setprice(self,
PriceLevel=defaultNamedNotOptArg,
arg1=defaultUnnamedArg):
return self._oleobj_.InvokeTypes(4, LCID, 4, (24, 0), ((2, 0), (6, 1)),PriceLevel, arg1)
			
Calling Setprice() causes Variant exception!
I had to change the above python from 
(6, 1) to (4, 1) 
The effect is to change
(pVal: Currency) to (pVal: Single)
	
Is there any other way around ?

Delete psrvr.zip (Typelib and TRegSvr).
TRegSvr is not required, just run PyCurr.exe
for register.

psrvr.exe source code is not available,
so I write a small PyCurr.exe for your testing.

Here is the screen shot:

c:\>tregsvr PyCurr.exe

>>> from win32com.client import Dispatch
>>> Ax = Dispatch('PyCurr.PyCurrency')
>>> Ax.SetpriceFloat(100.0)
>>> Ax.SetpriceDouble(100.0)
>>> Ax.SetpriceCurr(100.0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<COMObject PyCurr.PyCurrency>", line 2, in SetpriceCurr
TypeError: The VARIANT type is unknown (00000006)
File Added: PyCurr.zip

The typelib is in .exe file.
So I send it with register tool.
(regsvr32 won't work.)

The steps I test :-
...tregsvr psrvr.exe
...makepy.py: psrvr 1.0
File Added: psrvr.zip

I can't think if why this would have changed. Is it possible the COM
object itself changed?  Can you send me the typelib?
