The GetValue method passes a pointer in the form of an integer to
python instead of a key.
Correct. REFPROPERTYKEY is a pointer to the key. You will probably
have to use something like ctypes to dereference the pointer and fetch
the actual key.
Found I needed an update to my python distribution for ctypes to load
properly.
Ok, I've constructed the PROPERTYKEY structure using ctypes, and I am
now successfully fetching sensible data from this pointer
And secondly the return value never makes it back to windows either.
What are you actually returning?
I am trying to return a string, however I am not sure if there is
automatic wrapping of this in a PROPVARIANT as this is the expected
return value.
The python version of GetValue only accepts the key as an argument.,
I am unsure how to proceed.
