Summary: dbi.internal-error executing stored procedure

Initial Comment:
Sorry if this is not a bug.  I haven't been able to find 
much documentation.  I get the following error:
dbi.internal-error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]
Invalid Descriptor Index
in FETCH

The table has an image column and a timestamp 
column, and I just select a single row.  I was able to 
execute other stored procedures without trouble.  And I 
can execute the one that causes a problem without 
trouble using jdbc.  I tried shortening the data in the 
image column to just a few bytes, but that didn't help.

The code is below.

import dbi, odbc
try:
        s = odbc.odbc('xxx/xxx/xxx')
        cur = s.cursor()
        cur.execute('exec my_proc 5')
        print cur.fetchone()
except NameError,e:
        print 'error ', e, 'undefined'

Installing Build 204 on NT4 SP6, get the following error:
Creating Directory c:\python\Lib\site-

Only happening on NT ..... how do I fix it and what is the

actually it also happens on win2k where the c:\python\Lib\site-
packages\win32com\gen_py is empty. But the code for gen_py
is in c:\python\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client so maybe
the gen_py directory should just be removed.
Since I'm not a pro with pywin32's sources, that's just an
observation.

Initial Comment:
We are having problems using Microsoft's Collaboration 
Data Objects (CDO) to send e-mail with pywin32 build 
204.  Our Python code works perfectly with win32all 
build 163.  Preliminary testing with pywin32 build 200 
seemed to indicate that our code works with that as 
well.  This is the end of the traceback message we are 
getting:

No, the only difference is pywin32 itself.  Something in
pywin32 has changed between builds 200 and 204 that is
breaking CDO.

To test this, we started with a clean VMware image with
Windows XP and Office XP.  We booted from this image and
installed Python and pywin32 build 204.  We ran our code,
and it returned the error above.  Then we reverted to the
clean VMware image again.  We did everything *exactly* the
same, except that we installed win32all build 163, but this
time our code worked perfectly.  We reverted VMware again to
the base image, and then used win32all build 200, and also
did not notice any problems.  The *only* difference in all
of these three situations was the pywin32/win32all build
version.

I've never heard anything similar.  You could try explicitly
providing any optional args to "Update()", as I believe a
subtle change was made to the way default arguments are
passed.  If it possible something else changed - eg, new CDO
version, or the code now using makepy when it previously was
not, etc?

Summary: Update Win32ras for new RAS functions

Initial Comment:
Update Win32ras to provide ability to fetch the RAS local 
and remote server IP addresses, read the RAS counters 
for a connection, and clear the RAS counters for a 
connection. This means updating WINVER, using the 
lastest ras.h include file from Microsoft, and  checking 
that ras32api.dll is loaded at run time to avoid problems 
on older OS's i.e. anything other than Win2k and WinXP.


Necessary code changes are below. I have built and 
verified these changes on Win32Extensions 2.03 with

MSDN says RasGetProjectionStatus is available for NT - so
win32ras should be fine, even if it does involve bumping WINVER.

Implementing only one kind of projection is fine - just so
long as it is capable of being extended further.  For
example, you should still accept a RASPROJECTION param, but
raise a NotImplementedError if the value is not one supported.

Thanks!

OK can remove the code for GetConnectionStatistics and 
ClearConnectionStatistics completely from win32ras and 
leave it in win2kras as requested. I can also remove the 
checks of Ras status before calling them. 

About GetProjectionStatus - I can make the change as 
requested, but only for RASPPPIP, not the others. So this 
will be a hardcode version that does not handle the other 6 
rasprojection values. I do not currently have time to work on 
mapping all of these structures. Is that OK? 

Then the question is how to handle the RASPPPIP structure, 
since it contains a check on Winver=0x500 - do I leave it in 
win32ras with an ifdef, or move it to win2kras without an ifdef, 
or have 2 versions (in which case will the win2kras version 
override the win32ras version) ?

Sorry for the delay.

* It looks like only GetIpAddress() has been added to the
method table of  win32rasmodule.cpp -
GetConnectionStatistics and ClearConnectionStatistics seem
missing (ahh - I see - you accidently left the these methods
in win32ras *and* added them to win2kras)

* Can we change GetIpAddress() to GetProjectionInfo and
return everyting in the RASPPPIP structure.

* I think it would be better to not check the RAS status
before calling these functions - just let the API itself
return the appropriate error code - it will be clearer to
the user.

It would be fantastic if you could make these changes for me
and upload a new patch.

Thanks,

Mark

There is a win2kras module designed to avoid needing to
LoadLibrary functions.  Can you please reapply you patch to
this module (and you can drop the LoadLibrary)

Also, pyseeapi for ClearConnectionStatistics is wrong :)

Thanks

Summary: Update Win32ras for new RAS functions

Initial Comment:
Update Win32ras to provide ability to fetch the RAS local 
and remote server IP addresses, read the RAS counters 
for a connection, and clear the RAS counters for a 
connection. This means updating WINVER, using the 
lastest ras.h include file from Microsoft, and  checking 
that ras32api.dll is loaded at run time to avoid problems 
on older OS's i.e. anything other than Win2k and WinXP.


Necessary code changes are below. I have built and 
verified these changes on Win32Extensions 2.03 with 
Python 2.3.

#define WINVER 0x500

OK can remove the code for GetConnectionStatistics and 
ClearConnectionStatistics completely from win32ras and 
leave it in win2kras as requested. I can also remove the 
checks of Ras status before calling them. 

About GetProjectionStatus - I can make the change as 
requested, but only for RASPPPIP, not the others. So this 
will be a hardcode version that does not handle the other 6 
rasprojection values. I do not currently have time to work on 
mapping all of these structures. Is that OK? 

Then the question is how to handle the RASPPPIP structure, 
since it contains a check on Winver=0x500 - do I leave it in 
win32ras with an ifdef, or move it to win2kras without an ifdef, 
or have 2 versions (in which case will the win2kras version 
override the win32ras version) ?

Sorry for the delay.

* It looks like only GetIpAddress() has been added to the
method table of  win32rasmodule.cpp -
GetConnectionStatistics and ClearConnectionStatistics seem
missing (ahh - I see - you accidently left the these methods
in win32ras *and* added them to win2kras)

* Can we change GetIpAddress() to GetProjectionInfo and
return everyting in the RASPPPIP structure.

* I think it would be better to not check the RAS status
before calling these functions - just let the API itself
return the appropriate error code - it will be clearer to
the user.

It would be fantastic if you could make these changes for me
and upload a new patch.

Thanks,

Mark

There is a win2kras module designed to avoid needing to
LoadLibrary functions.  Can you please reapply you patch to
this module (and you can drop the LoadLibrary)

Also, pyseeapi for ClearConnectionStatistics is wrong :)

Thanks

You need both a compiler (VC6 for Python 2.3 and earlier,
VC7 for later) and the platform SDK to build these
extensions from source-code.  However, it isn't clear that
you actually need to build from source code - is there a
reason you can't use the pre-built binaries?

Does this mean actually have to have Microsoft Visual Studio 
6 installed?  I just installed the Microsoft software 
development kit available online, as I assumed that's what 
the prerequisites were. if you are saying they actually need 
visual C. version 6 and I will go and see if I can locate it

This error sounds like it is MSVC6 itself that can not be
located.  If you recently installed it, you must start the
MSVC6 dev environment before it will be found by distutils.

Summary: Sorting of the objects/defs in Class List Panel

Initial Comment:
I like the idea of the Class List panel (panel at the
left-hand side of the code) but it is sorted
alphabetically. I don't necessarily organize the
classes and defines in my modules alphabetically. I
therefore find the panel confusing and as a result
cannot use it.

Why not provide an option to sort it the same way that
it appears in the code?

Could you please check your registry under the key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python 2.4\Python for Win32 -
there may be many "Toolbar" sub-keys.  If so, please delete
them (deleting that entire key may be easier) and see if
they come back (note that ~10 entries is normal - hundreds
is not!)

This bug should be fixed in build 204, so may not come back
for you (ie, the entries may have been written by 203)

Summary: Dedent, Indent Region. Plus Collapsible Sections.

Initial Comment:
In IDLE I use the Indent and Unindent region options -  
frequently.
Particularly by their shortcuts - 'ctrl-]' and 'ctrl-['.
Not only does pythonwin use a different shortcut for 
dedent region - but it doesn't have a shortcut at all for 
indent region.

For this region I tend to edit my modules in IDLE and 
only use pythonwin for my main code - because of it's 
quick 'import/reload - module' option. (Which 
intermittently fails to reload a module by the way... - 
*possibly* caused by occasional conflicts with Psyco 
the optimizing compiler ?).

Also an option to collapse sections of code from view 
would be useful.

If these features I request are *already* available - 
could you contact me on mike at pcblokes dot com ??

Folding etc can also be achieved with the keypad +/- and *
keys ( the latter collapses every top-level fold)

See pywin\default.cfg for keyboard assignment, and the .chm
file that ships with pythonwin for more details on the
keyboard assignments and how to change them

And dedent is shift-tab.  These are much more common than
ctrl-] and ctrl=] in my experience.

To collapse a block, click the little minus on the left of
the window that appears at the start of each block.

Sure, I'm using ActiveState Python 2.4.1 (iirc) and would be
glad to test an updated version. I should be able to test it
pretty easily by disabling the hack I added to get around
the issue and seeing if it still works.

If I need to I can manually install vanilla Python 2.4 and
then win32com, if ActiveState distributes a custom version.

The installation program should at least point to e.g.

-------- traceback --------



Cause
=====

In genpy.py, _Build_CoClassChildren enumerates the 
dispatchable interfaces of a coclass, to construct the 
list of interfaces and dispinterfaces to be generated. But 
some interfaces, though dispatchable, are not listed as 
TKIND_DISPATCH (I think these are Automation 
interfaces as opposed to Dual interfaces; this is just a 
guess, though). These interfaces then don't get included 
in the generated module. Listing the dispinterfaces for 
DocumentEvents using the OLE object viewer that 
comes with Visual Studio, versus inspecting the 
generated Python coclass for DocumentEvents, 
highlights the shortcoming.



Possible solution
=================

Applying the following patch to genpy.py solves the 
problem, allowing Visual Studio events to be hooked in 
Python:

-------- diff --------
680c680,681
<         if refAttr.typekind == 
pythoncom.TKIND_DISPATCH:
---
>         if refAttr.typekind == 
pythoncom.TKIND_DISPATCH or >            (refAttr.typekind == 
pythoncom.TKIND_INTERFACE and refAttr[11] & 
pythoncom.TYPEFLAG_FDISPATCHABLE):
-------- diff --------

I have not tried to test whether this has any adverse 
effects on other aspects of pythoncom. But the 
additional data in the generated module seems to be 
healthy.



Remarks
=======

Visual Studio .NET has a different system of event 
source objects from Office applications. Office 
applications are their own event sources, whereas 
Visual Studio .NET has several different event objects, 
for Document events, Solution events, IDE events and 
so on. I suppose this architectural difference is why this 
bug appears not to have been reported against Office 
applications too.

Summary: Early binding of WMI Scripting V1.2 Library hides properties

Initial Comment:
Using the microsoft sample code located at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/scripts/python/ad/domains/addmpy01.mspx,
I find that the code will not run if the the scripting
library (Microsoft WMI Scripting V1.2 Library) is
configured for early binding (that is, I use the makepy
utility).  If I remove the early binding, the script
runs fine.

With early binding enabled, I get the following output:

--- begin output ---
Caption:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\bin\domain_enum.py", line 7, in ?
    print "Caption: ", objItem.Caption
  File "C:\Program
Files\Python\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\__init__.py",
line 454, in __getattr__
    raise AttributeError, "'%s' object has no attribute
'%s'" % (repr(self), attr)
AttributeError: '<win32com.gen_py.Microsoft WMI
Scripting V1.2 Library.ISWbemObjectEx instance at
0x14848208>' object has no attribute 'Caption'
--- end output ---

I have found that the objItem.Caption attribute is not
available, but I can use objItem.Properties_.Item(
'Caption' ).Value to acquire the correct result.

I am unsure how to approach this problem, but I post it
for public knowledge.  I will be happy to look into the
problem further or provide more information, but I
would need some direction to proceed.

It looks like these interfaces are designed to be used
early-bound.  I can't find 'Caption' described in the
typelib at all.  I'm not sure how to proceed either!
