(I've recently answered amost this question over on StockOverflow as it happens: it wasn't you, was it? :) ) One answer is to use cacls / xcacls, the command-line tool which ships with Windows. If you want a Python-y way of doing it (which is, I assume, why you asked here) then I can do no better than recommend my fledgling winsys module: MSI here: http://timgolden.me.uk/python/downloads/WinSys-0.4.win32-py2.6.msi or Subversion here: svn co http://winsys.googlecode.com/svn/trunk winsys The code would then be something like (depending on what you actually wanted to show...):


from winsys import fs

ROOT = "c:/temp"
#
# For purposes of illustration, just show directories
#
for directory, dirs, files in fs.walk (ROOT):
  dirpath = directory.filepath.relative_to (ROOT)
  indent = "  " * dirpath.count (fs.sep)
  print indent, dirpath
  security = directory.security ()
  for dace in directory.security ().dacl:
    print indent, dace
  print

Obviously, it depends on exactly what you're after. If you'd rather do it with "native" Python+pywin32, I'm happy to produce an example, but it's a bit tedious (which is why I wrote the winsys package to save myself the trouble of remembering...)

ADO is what creates the the extra select at the end of the SQL that is generated and therefore the last recordset. Shouldn't it pull that last recordset off to populate the output parameters? If we do have to run through all recordsets before ADO will properly populate the output values (which I have tried and not been able to get working), then its going to be difficult for adodbapi to work correctly. Its supposed to return the output parameters immediately after executing callproc(), but it can't do that because the recordsets haven't been processed yet. -------------------------------------- Randy Syring RCS Computers & Web Solutions 502-644-4776 http://www.rcs-comp.com "Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." 1 Cor 10:31 From bbbscarter at gmail.com Wed May 27 23:00:10 2009 From: bbbscarter at gmail.com (Simon Carter) Date: Wed, 27 May 2009 22:00:10 +0100 Subject: [python-win32] COM and retrieving records/structures In-Reply-To: <4A04CB6A.1060009@gmail.com> References: <49EE9B54.8080000@gmail.com> <001c01c9c332$56a9cec0$03fd6c40$@com.au> <4A04CB6A.1060009@gmail.com> Message-ID: >> Hi!

If that is correct, I'm not aware of an Pywin32 API to handle that, but someone else might. There are several programs on the web that can help you create .msi or install applications...just google for them. If that is too complicated or expensive then you can always use WinZip to zip your files and then create a self-extracting .exe with the default install directory specified.

The status bar is a child window. However, the answer to your question depends on which application you want to scrape. Many apps use the standard "msctls_statusbar32" control to implement status bars. If yours does, you can enumerate the child windows until you find a window of class "msctls_statusbar32", then use the status bar APIs to get the contents of its panels. However, even that isn't foolproof. Thunderbird and Firefox, as an example, have implemented their own custom window classes for all of their controls. They don't respond to normal window messages from the outside. The Office applications don't use separate windows for their controls; their windows are just one big empty canvas, where everything is painted internally. -- Tim Roberts, timr at probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc.
