Modified Files: Tag: Zope-2_7-branch WinSignalHandler.py Log Message: As at pywin32-204, we must ensure pywintypes is the first win32 module imported in our process, otherwise we can end up with 2 pywintypesxx.dll instances in our process resulting in: TypeError: The object is not a PySECURITY_ATTRIBUTES object
Mark, should Zope's nt_svcutils/service.py also be changed to import pywintypes first? Its import block looks like this now: import sys, os, time, threading, signal import win32api, win32event, win32file, win32pipe, win32process, win32security import win32service, win32serviceutil, servicemanager import pywintypes, winerror, win32con I had "funny problems" getting the Windows ZRS installer to register the ZRS service on older machines, primarily the python.exe - Entry Point Not Found The procedure entry point ?PyWinObject_AsDEVMODE@@YAHPAU_object@@PAPAU_devicemodeA@@H@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library pywintypes23.dll popup box on a machine with an older pywintypes23.dll in the system32 directory.
