Hi All,
I am trying to generate a DLL from a python script that can be accessed from a
variety other programming platforms.
I am generating the python-based COM DLL using a distutils setup script that is
called using py2exe.
The DLL is successfully generated and I can register it using regsvr32, but now
I am not sure how to access the function within the dll. This is a test
scenario but ideally I will have multiple functions in my python script that
will need to be called and to which I will need to pass arguments.
In order to test this process I created a simple python script:
testscript.py
/////////////////////////
class testscript:
def tryit(a,b):
alexis = a + b
return alexis
/////////////////////////
I then ran the following setup script from command line>> setup.py py2exe
setup.py
/////////////////////////
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
import sys
import comtypes
import comtypes.client
class Target:
def __init__(self, **kw):
self.__dict__.update(kw)
# for the version info resources (Properties -- Version)
self.version = "0.0.1"
self.company_name = "my company"
self.copyright = "(c) 2006, my company"
self.name = "my com server name"
my_com_server_target = Target(
description = "my com server",
# use module name for ctypes.com dll server
modules = ["testscript"],
# we only want the inproc (dll) server
create_exe = False
create_dll = True
)
setup(
name="my_com_server",
# the following two parameters embed support files within dll file
options={"py2exe": {"bundle_files": 1, }},
zipfile=None,
version="0.0.1",
description="my com server",
# author, maintainer, contact go here:
author="First Last",
author_email="some_name@some_company.com<https://ch1prd0102.outlook.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=uQeS3p99F02hlyLkjgUCWD_IvKYh_M4Ifcon90VNuxNzuAci5VhvJPb0gg_hrvvyb-5jqALjBEM.&URL=mailto%3asome_name%40some_company.com>",
ctypes_com_server=[my_com_server_target]
)
//////////////////////////////////////
>From command line I run>> regsvr32 testscript.dll
The dll is successfully registered.
I am assuming that I now have a COM DLL that I can test in python using
win32com, but I am not sure how to go about doing this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Alexis
