Category: com Group: v1.0 (example) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Dudley McFadden (dudmc3) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Incomplete gen_py cache file results from missing typelib Initial Comment: Under certain circumstances, gencache raises an unhandled exception, resulting in a cache file (in the gen_py directory) that is incomplete. The first time that makepy or gencache.EnsureModule is invoked, the cache file is created. However, it contains only the 26-line or so header. The next time gencache is invoked, it sees the cache file, presumes it is complete, then exits normally. User code subsequently fails. Since there is an (apparently) valid file is available in gen_py for the server and the user has correctly registered the COM server, it is perplexing why the user's code doesn't work. In my example, the inital exception is raised by build.py in _ResolveType, at line 452: resultTypeInfo = itypeinfo.GetRefTypeInfo(subrepr) The exception is raised when there is an unregistered CLSID being referenced by the type library under inspection. In my example, I have a method that needs a reference to a certain interface as an argument. That interface is to a COM server that is not registered. I developed a workaround by modifying the code around the line noted above to read as: try: resultTypeInfo = itypeinfo.GetRefTypeInfo(subrepr) except pythoncom.com_error: return pythoncom.VT_EMPTY, None, None but this is clearly a "punt." The GetRefTypeInfo raises an exception because the CLSID described in its argument is not registered. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=551954&aid=1548903&group_id=78018 |
