I have implemented a local COM Server with win32com framework where all clients use the same global object (test_obj). So far it works, but when the last client is closed the gobal object is deleted because the pythonw.exe is closed. When I create a new client a new pythonw process is started. I need that the new client gets the same global object. How can I prevent the Python COM enviornment (pythonw.exe) to close when no client exist. I figured out a workaround, but there must be real solution to the problem.
The code looks like: class test: ... test_obj=test() class test_F: _reg_clsid_ = ... _reg_progid_ = "test.cl" _reg_clsctx_ = pythoncom.CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER _public_methods_ = ... def __init__(self): self.delegate=test_obj .... ... ####Workaround to keep the local server alive if not __name__=='__main__': import win32com.client dummy=win32com.client.Dispatch("test.cl") ########################################################## if __name__=='__main__': import win32com.server.register win32com.server.register.UseCommandLine(test_F, debug=0) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
