This appears to be due to way rpcrt4.dll is loaded by ctypes.  If a side-by-side assembly has already loaded a version that?s not
compatible with the activation context of Python itself, ctypes will attempt to use it anyway.

I have a small python COM server that worked fine with Excel until I decided to import the standard Python 'uuid' module.

Now I get the Windows Runtime error R6034 "An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly"


I there anything that I can do to fix this?

Subject: [python-win32] adodbapi transaction counter
Message-ID: <AD1A177831D0434C9A8737F705376EE801322A4703@exchange.perftech.local>

I just installed this on Python 2.7 and immediately ran into a possible bug:

When connection.rollback() is called, a new transaction wasn't immediately started.
I traced the bug to line 382 in adodbapi.py where transaction_level is checked against 0. However, the COM routine called a bit above this line actually returns None as current level.

Adding the check for None solves the issue:

adodbapi.py
def _rollback(self):
    # original statement didn't check for None
    if self.transaction_level == 0 or self.transaction_level is None:  # line 382


Is it possible to add this to project source / PyPI?

LP,

Rats! That's what I get for copying code that I don't really understand. My
simple tests passed this as okay.

I have changed the test to "if not self.transaction_level:" in order to fix
the bug and avoid the "or" operation at the same time. That's pretty
obscure, so I use your version as the comment. This bug fix will define
version 2.6.1.2 -- to be pushed to pypi after testing.

If I will overwrite the whole DriverData with the data when the printer was set to matte using the windows dialog It works, so I have saved me the content and can load it into DriverData if needed.

But I think it is a very dirty way to do, even I doesn't know which special features will follow in the future.

Sadly, there really is no other way to do it.  Windows tries its best to provide an abstraction for the devices at the bottom of things.  With some classes of devices, the abstraction works well.  With other classes, it doesn?t.  Printing is one class of devices where it doesn?t work.  Anything special features that weren?t anticipated in the abstraction aren?t available except through escapes and overrides, like what you are using.

Subject: [python-win32] Get key press in Windows 7
Message-ID: <54776820.8040301@ntlworld.com>

I have tried a module called readchar to make a Python 2.7 script detect 
keystrokes in Windows 7.
I found it via a link from Stack Overflow.
When <ctrl>z  is pressed its output is printed in the console as
u'\x1a'
According to Python 2.7 its type is 'str'. Seeing that it is preceded by 
a 'u', why is it not 'unicode'?
While it appears in the console as above, if it is assigned to a 
variable ( c = repr(readchar.readkey()) )
and then the value of the variable is tested:
print c == u'\x1a'
the answer is 'False'
This does not make sense. What type of object is a keystroke?

Perhaps I need to find some other way for a Python script detect 
keystrokes but I am confused as to what Python sees them as.

Any advice would be welcome.

Regards

John Sampson

I believe your problem is the use of repr() when assigning to c:

 >>> u'\x1a'
u'\x1a'
 >>> c = u'\x1a'
 >>> c == u'\x1a'
True
 >>> repr(c)
"u'\\x1a'"
 >>> repr(c) == u'\x1a'
False
 >>>

Many thanks - by excluding repr the code behaves in a comprehensible 
way. The example code that was provided at Stack Overflow included repr 
so I assumed that it was necessary for some reason.
If I were allowed to comment there I would ask why.

Right, because that?s the ASCII value for Ctrl-Z.

In this line, ?readchar.readkey()? returns a string of length 1.  It contains one character, with a value of 1A in hex.  When you pass that through ?repr?, you end up with a string of length 7: ?u?, apostrophe, backslash, ?x?, ?1?, ?a?, and apostrophe.  Naturally, when you compare that to a string of length 1, it doesn?t match.


> This does not make sense. What type of object is a keystroke?

It?s a string containing one character.  Wasn?t that obvious from your output?

In answer to Time Roberts, I saw an item prefixed with 'u' (u'\x1a'). 
What is the purpose of this prefix? I would have thought it meant 
'Unicode' but the type according to Python is 'str'.

Thank you for the explanation of 'repr'. The issue turned out to be the 
inclusion of 'repr' in the sample code without evidence or explanation 
of its purpose there. Once I was given a clue that 'repr' was the 
problem and I eliminated it things became clear.

In Py2:
a = u'x'
type(a)
<type 'unicode'>

In Py3.4:
a = u'x'
type(a)
<class 'str'>

Note that u'' is not available in Py 3.0 - 3.2.

See e.g. here for more details:
