My apologies to the list about my earlier question that was in html. My webmail is supposed to default to plain text but clearly did not.
I am trying to write a Python server that will be used by a C++ client. It has taken me quite a while longer than I expected. I have been through the archives and that helped me get to where I am. Many thanks to all those who support these packages. I am using Python 2.5.1 as it is required by some vendor equipment that I must use. One of the reasons it took me a while to get this going was that I was trying to test it in Python. Once I switched to testing it in VBA then I made much faster progress. For demonstration purposes I used the Pippo test in the 'win32com\test' directory. I modified the testpippo.py by adding some code at the start of the testLeaks method. I added the 4 lines: in1 = 15 inout1 = 99 hr= self.object.Method3( in1, inout1) print hr, "retval = %d inout1 = %d"%(hr[0], hr[1]) The printed line was "(0, -31) retval = 0 inout1 = -31". I get "retval = -41 inout1= -31" if I execute the VBA code: Sub TestPippo() Dim obj As Pippo Dim in1 As Long Dim inout1 As Long Set obj = CreateObject("Python.Test.Pippo") in1 = 1 inout1 = 2 retval = obj.Method3(in1, inout1) MsgBox ("retval = " & retval & " inout1 = " & inout1) End Sub Is there a way to call the same Python Server Method, Method3, so that both Python and VBA receive the same return data?
