TypeError: No method matches given arguments for SetContext: (<class 'int'>)
by Steven Manross 15 Jul '22

15 Jul '22

I got my initial code working on the C DLL and it's creating snapshot sets as I want. I am now having a problem with a function to query ALL the snapshots. This value can be sent to SetContext() In [39]: alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All Out[39]: 4294967295 4294967295 = 0xFFFFFFFF A sample of the call is here: https://github.com/alphaleonis/AlphaVSS-Samples/blob/8482e83dd13cb8467860e8… # this is the declaration of SetContext virtual void SetContext(VssSnapshotContext context); This is the declaration for All: VssSnapshotContext.All = 0xFFFFFFFF https://github.com/alphaleonis/AlphaVSS/blob/13462e657f7993da5c80f835d219bb… However, this line results in a Type error In [40]: ctx = cmp.SetContext(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- TypeError Traceback (most recent call last) Input In [40], in <cell line: 1>() ----> 1 ctx = cmp.SetContext(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All) TypeError: No method matches given arguments for SetContext: (<class 'int'>) I've tried converting the value using: ctx = cmp.SetContext(System.Convert.ToUInt32(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All)) *And* ctx = cmp.SetContext(ctypes.c_uint32(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All).value) but the same error occurs I can get the function to succeed (albeit it doesn't show me what I want) with this: cmp.SetContext(ctypes.c_int32(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All).value) ... because ctypes.c_int32(alphavsslib.VssSnapshotContext.All).value = -1 I believe it's possible that this could be related to the link below but I can't be sure because I am not a C developer and I can't determine how this was fix from the notes in the link. Granted, the author is on CentOS, and I'm on Windows... but the backstory behind the issue sounds like it's related. https://github.com/pythonnet/pythonnet/issues/950 I'm currently running on pythonnet 2.5.2 and Python 3.9.13 (tags/v3.9.13:6de2ca5, May 17 2022, 16:36:42) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

pythonnet crashes python 39
by Florin Atasiei 12 Jul '22

Hello gutlys, thanks for the good work I encountered a problem on all 3.0.0 versions. I have a small exe written in C# that opens up a python process and then puts it to execute python modules. On one od the modules I have import clr. When it imports that module I get Fatal Python error:take_gil: NULL tstate and then python crashes and also the main thread from my program. This is not happening on 2.5.2 release but with that i have other problems since is not for py39 If I open python 39 and do the import clr it works. Is only happening when the import is done from a subprocess. I just thought this can be a good info for you guys. Keep in touch.

BadImageFormatException or FileNotFoundException- pythonnet and AlphaVSS
by Steven Manross 11 Jul '22

11 Jul '22

Howdy all, I am somewhat new to pythonnet and .NET programming, and just joined the mailing list. You have my apologies if I am missing something simple. I am aware that BadImageFormatException suggests that I'm trying to open an x64 DLL on a 32-bit OS or python installation (or vice versa), but neither seem to be the case (that I can tell). Depending on exactly how I call the code, I get a File Not Found or Bad Image Exception. The File Not Found is interesting since the files live in the same directory as a working DLL (AlphaVSS.Common works - built to run on any architecture, AlphaVSS.x64 doesn't). Specifics: * Python 3.9.13 (tags/v3.9.13:6de2ca5, May 17 2022, 16:36:42) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 * uninstalled Python 3.10 temporarily so I cant get you that detail (sorry) * And the Windows version clearly states it's Windows Server 2016 x64 I'm doing my testing from ipython. The code below was tested with Python 3.9 x64 (pythonnet 2.5.2 via wheel file) and Python 3.10 x64 (installed pythonnet 3.0.0-dev1 from git master a few days ago) on Windows Server 2016 x64 Evaluation patched for current .NET Frameworks 2022-06 and both produce an error on the following code. AlphaVSS DLLs were generated via powershell/nuget, and I just copied the DLLs from my powershellmodules dir to the "clr_dir" below for testing (documentation suggests you copy the files to the same directory for use). This DLL was created for .NET Framework 4.5 and I've installed Framework 4.8 and this Cumulative update: * 2022-06 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 4.8 for Windows Server 2016 for x64 (KB5014630) This code is eventually intended to manipulate the Volume Shadow Copy Service on Windows. I am aware that there is limited functionality for ShadowCopies from DISKSHADOW and WMI, but wanted to get more functionality from this VSS .NET Library (specifically Shadow Copy Sets), and pythonnet seemed like a great way to implement this code in my favorite scripting language. Here is the documentation for the DLLs (version 2.0.0) if anyone wants that: https://alphavss.alphaleonis.com/api/Alphaleonis.Win32.Vss.html git source: https://github.com/alphaleonis/AlphaVSS I double checked permissions on the DLLs and I have full control as the administrator. UAC is completely turned off on this machine (if it matters). Any suggestions would be appreciated. This is a test system, so I can do just about anything to it including rebuilding it from scratch as it was built specifically for testing this. This is a VM on Hyper-V 2016 (I doubt that matters). Thank you for your time! Steven # ipython dir output In [16]: ! dir "c:\users\administrator\desktop\alphavss" Volume in drive C has no label.
