I assume you are trying to access an optional property.

Try calling it like so SMU.Measurement.Trace.GetAverageReading().

Alternatively you can try str(SMU.Measurement.Trace.GetAverageReading) to check whether it has a valid string representation attached.

"Class not registered" means it cannot find the class factory for the class. That's an error independent of Python and has nothing to do with it...other than the bitness of Python (whether it is 32 or 64-bit, and whether the COM server is 32 or 64-bit). It also matters whether the server is In Process (a DLL) or Out of Process (EXE). For EXE, it really doesn't matter, but for an In-Process server, the bitness of the calling program and the COM server have to match. In order to see if you have a bitness problem, do this...

DllImport kernel32.dll code working in console app but not in UWP - FindFirstFileW returns INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE

Asked 2021-Oct-18 at 09:04

I'm attempting to use low level Windows API's (specifically FindFirstFileW / fileapi.h) in a UWP app for the first time.

I have proof of concept code running successfully in a .Net console app, and now want to try it in a UWP app (personal hobby project). The import statement uses SetLastError = true:

...

ANSWER

Answered 2021-Oct-18 at 09:04

I tried the code, the code returns the same result as you mentioned. The document of FindFirstFileW mentions this API could be used in UWP apps but it will still be limited by the UWP apps as the UWP are running in the sandbox.

If you are trying to find a file and its handle, there is another way that you could do that. You could get a brokered file HANDLE from a StorageFile with the IStorageItemHandleAccess interface or from a StorageFolder with the IStorageFolderHandleAccess interface. After you've got the handle, you should be able to use the handle in some win32 APIs to do what you want.

Besides, if you don't mind using the desktop bridge, you could do it in the desktop apps, and then package it together with the UWP app. Use the UWP app to launch the desktop app which calls the win32 APIs to do the work.
