And yes Ryan, this will be fixed in .NET 4.0 because they allow binding against 
dynamic objects. Also controlling the .NET type Ruby uses to back all its 
classes can make these things work too, which I’m experimenting with now.

Shouldn't the WPF in .NET 4.0 fix the databinding issues? Does IronPython have 
a good databinding story with WPF? While it would be nice, I am not sure WPF 
databinding should hold up 1.0 if it has more to do with WPF than IronRuby.

Sorry for being unclear. I can't point to a certain place where there are 
problems, but I do feel there are rough edges here and there. For example, I 
was playing with WPF the other day and I ended up converting IR types to CLR 
types (using to_clr_string for instance) in order to get the databinding 
working (for Image elements for example).

Hope it helps,

Where is the .NET interop lacking? Just saying it’s lacking doesn’t really help 
=)



From recent threads this is the list:

-          Events on interfaces and abstract classes

-          C# operators (though I’m not sure what cases are missing)

-          .NET Attributes (though it may not happen, it’s on the list … since 
I’m experimenting with things now)



Anything else?

In my opinion, IronRuby "specialité" is its .Net interop capabilities and this 
is the reason why people will prefer or not prefer using it. This lacks in some 
places and I think it should be the main focus for V1.
