Hrm. Is it just embedding via COM servers and services or something else?<div>i.e. If I wrote a C++ WTL based UI to drive some embedded Python COM client logic or SQL queries do you think I'd need to do anything extra special?<br>
<br>For various scary reasons I need to write a log collection tool to run on Win2k and Win2k8 R2. The tool needs to collect some WMI, SQL, and eventlog data. <br>I can't reboot the computer the tool runs on, so I can't install any additional software. The job ought to be substantially simpler if I could write the data collection bits in Python instead of C++.<br>

</div>In the simple case, it works fine without the post_install script execute,<br>
and so long as no embedding is attempted.<br>
