As an addendum to my previous post: I was able to successfully do screen capturing using win32gui + win32ui, [though I am still looking for a solution that works without win32ui].
Why? win32ui is just a wrapper around user32.dll. That's the way you get UI stuff done on Windows.
In the C/C++ code snippets I've seen, the cleanup step usually involves ReleaseDC(hwnd, hDC), DeleteDC(myDC), and DeleteObject(myBitmap).
Right, and every programmer forgets those. That's why there are so many wrapper classes to handle them automatically.
Are these steps automatically handled in Python by win32gui and win32ui? If not, can someone post a snippet of cleanup code that works for this example?
Yes, it is automatic. When the objects are destroyed, the resources will be released.
