Pywin32 (com objects) on Mac

Question

I\'ve got a quick question that I hope someone can help me with.

I\'m in the process of creating/planning an app that needs to run cross platform and use a com libra

Answer 1

COM is Windows only. COM requires extensive use of the Windows registry and WinAPI. I've seen some frameworks emulate or mock COM behavior on other operating systems (e.g. MainWin on Linux/Solaris), but I don't know of one for Mac.

The win32py module is just a wrapper around WinAPI calls. So if the WinAPI isn't available, win32py won't work.

Is the logic you need something you can wrap a service around? In other words, can you host a service on a Windows box and have the Mac application invoke the service?
