Hi,
I've tried this to provide a callback function to a COM object:
==============
import win32com.client
def HandleReadyState():
# anything you want
return
ox = win32com.client.Dispatch('MSXML.DomDocument')
ox.onreadystatechange = HandleReadyState
==============
And the last line raises this:
==============
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "validation.py", line 7, in ?
ox.onreadystatechange = HandleReadyState
File "C:\Python21\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 467, in __setattr__
self._oleobj_.Invoke(self._olerepr_.propMapPut[attr].dispid, 0,
pythoncom.DI
SPATCH_PROPERTYPUT, 0, value)
TypeError: Objects of type 'function' can not be converted to a COM VARIANT
=============
This works perfectly when the equivalent is programmed in javascript.
"onreadystatechange" is an event that can be handled by a user function.
Did I miss something ?
Thanks in advance fo any hint.
