I found two fixes for the crash. Now I need one of you brilliant folks to
tell me which is correct. First, here is a snippet from adodbapi.
Look closely at the comments on the last three lines of code ...
v v v v v v v v v
[... Snip ...]
[ (Note: lines below are paraphrased -- not quite the actual code) ]
def connect(connection_string):
pythoncom.CoInitialize()
conn = win32com.client.Dispatch("ADODB.Connection")
conn.ConnectionString = connection_string
conn.Open()
return Connection(conn)
class Connection(object):
__init__(self,conn):
self.adoConn = conn
self.messages = []
[... snip ...]
def _closeAdoConnection(self): #all v2.1 Rose
"""close the underlying ADO Connection object,
rolling it back first if it supports transactions."""
if self.supportsTransactions:
self.adoConn.RollbackTrans()
self.adoConn.Close()
def close(self):
self.messages=[]
try:
self._closeAdoConnection() #v2.1 Rose
except (Exception), e:
self._raiseConnectionError(InternalError,e)
del self.adoConn #### adding
this line cures the crash
####
or
pythoncom.CoUninitialize() #### removing this
line cures the crash
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
So --- which is the correct correction?
remove the CoUininitialize()
or perform the explicit del of the Dispatch object?
