Hello, I start my script convert.py simultaneously in any dos-shells several times. But I get every time the same solidworks instance. I see in the proccess (task) manager only one solidworks.exe Therefore I get for all simultaneous conversions the same output file.
I tested the same code with excel (test_excel.py) and her I get many instances of excel in proccess (task) manager. How can I get many instances of solidworks? Is it a problem of python? Or is it a problem of the Solidworks-COM-Implemention and I get the same problem with an C++ client implementation? Thanks for your help, Thomas convert.py import pythoncom pythoncom.CoInitializeEx(pythoncom.COINIT_MULTITHREADED) sldworks = gencache.EnsureModule('{83A33D31-27C5-11CE- BFD4-00400513BB57}', 0x0, 13, 0) sw = sldworks.ISldWorks(DispatchEx('SldWorks.Application')) swmodel, errors, warnings = sw.OpenDoc6(sourceName, constants.swDocPART, constants.swOpenDocOptions_Silent, "") activeDoc = sw.ActiveDoc retval, errors, warnings = swmodel.SaveAs4(targetName, constants.swSaveAsCurrentVersion , constants.swOpenDocOptions_Silent ) pythoncom.CoUninitialize() test_excel.py import pythoncom pythoncom.CoInitializeEx(pythoncom.COINIT_MULTITHREADED) myExcel = win32com.client.DispatchEx('Excel.Application') myExcel.Visible = 1 Excel = myExcel.Workbooks.Open(excelfile, 0, False, 2) Excel.Saved = 1 Excel.Close() myExcel.Quit() del myExcel del Excel pythoncom.CoUninitialize() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
