I've been searching high and low looking for any sort of decent reference for the win32api in python and I can't find anything that is useful.
There isn't much, in spite of a few attempts (my own included) to get something going. There's never enough time... Ultimately, the win32api calls *are* wrapping the MSDN calls almost directly so you just have to dive in, but ...
So what I'm trying to do for now, is fairly simple. I just want to be able to make a couple calls and get system info like the number of processor packages, the number of processor cores, processor flags (if possible), free mem, total mem, OS version and a few other tidbits of system information.
Here at least I can help. Try using WMI which eats this kind of thing for breakfast[*]. Start here: http://timgolden.me.uk/python/wmi.html taking in this: http://timgolden.me.uk/python/wmi-tutorial.html and this: http://timgolden.me.uk/python/wmi_cookbook.html and feel free to get back with specifics. TJG [*] I hope :) _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
