I have ctypes version 0.9.6 and Python 2.4.2 running on Windows XP Professional.
When I tried to use some functions in the Advapi32.dll, some functions are available and some are not. Is this a bug or feature by design? In the example below, I am trying to examine the 'InitiateSystemShutdown' function which is from Advapi32.dll as advertised by Microsoft http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shutdown/base/initiatesystemshutdown.asp Thanks, P >>> import ctypes >>> advapi32 = ctypes.oledll.LoadLibrary('Advapi32.dll') >>> advapi32.InitiateSystemShutdown Traceback (most recent call last): File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ? File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\ctypes\__init__.py", line 395, in __getattr__ func = self._OlecallFuncPtr(name, self) AttributeError: function 'InitiateSystemShutdown' not found >>> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
