kandi X-RAY | pyWinAPI Summary
pyWinAPI is a Python library. pyWinAPI has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. However pyWinAPI build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.
this project is never intended to run. it is to be used as a reference in order to obtain python version of the c code located in the windows sdk. thewindows sdk is a behemoth clockin in at almost 10 million lines of code. i think that python would cringe and then run away if we tried to run a program that contained that many lines of code. not to mention what the memory hit would be if we loaded that much code. most objects created using ctypes or comtypes is going to require you to release them explicitly. releasing an object is freeing the memory the object is using. simply deleting the object in python is not going to release the memory that is being used. this is extremely important because if you do not do this you are going to end up with memory fragmentation and leaks, and this is never a nice thing to have to deal with. make sure you read the windows sdk documentation, it will tell you if you need to release or (free) an object. and if it tells you that you do then you must do it. another suggestion is when you need to access some information from an object in the windows api do not hold reference to this
