Hello, I'm trying to call WNetGetUniversalNameW via the ctypes module but I'm only causing the interpreter to crash. Unfortunately I don't have much experience with the ctypes module and I'm still trying to figure it out. I've searched for a solution to no avail. My confusion is centered around the LPVOID buffer parameter and how this should be created/used. Any help is appreciated.
# DWORD WNetGetUniversalName( # __in LPCTSTR lpLocalPath, # __in DWORD dwInfoLevel, # __out LPVOID lpBuffer, # __inout LPDWORD lpBufferSize # ); import ctypes, win32netcon LPDWORD = ctypes.POINTER(DWORD) class UniversalNameInfo(ctypes.Structure): __fields__ = [("lpUniversalName", LPCWSTR)] WNetGetUniversalNameW = ctypes.windll.mpr.WNetGetUniversalNameW path = LPCWSTR('Y:') level = DWORD(win32netcon.UNIVERSAL_NAME_INFO_LEVEL) buffer_len = LPDWORD(DWORD(1024)) uni_struct = UniversalNameInfo() ret = WNetGetUniversalNameW(path, level, uni_struct, buffer_len) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
