[python-win32] Missing methods from result of Dispatch or EnsureDispatch

[Parand Tony Darugar]

Hi Tim,

Thank you for the clarification. You're not missing anything, I'm entirely new to the world of COM and .Net and didn't understand the difference. 

I'll look for a non-managed COM example. In the meanwhile:

- Outside of Ironpython, is there a reasonable way to interaction with .Net objects/assemblies in Python?

- Does the fact that Dispatch is able to bring in that object mean anything? I'm looking for clues on where to look for the COM interfaces, was hoping there was something to these COM handles I'm able to dispatch.

Best,
 
Parand

Perhaps I'm missing something, but in both cases there, you are creating
a .NET object from a .NET assembly, not a COM object.  It's possible
Microsoft has a parallel interface available for COM apps, but there's
not necessarily any relationship between their object models.

Do you have an example that shows Dynamics being used from a non-managed
COM application?
