I may be totally "off base," but have you tried using the fusion viewer to ensure that you do not have a problem with .NET loading the DLL (and its underlying COM object).

I ran in to a problem recently where I am asking IronRuby 1.1.1 to require a DLL but it does not appear to be loaded. I do not get an error message but cannot instantiate any types from the DLL. If I do "p Object.constants" it does not return any namespaces or classes from the DLL. When trying to do: "mdMATCHUPOBJECTLib::mdMUIncrementalClass.new" I get the error: "undefined method mdMATCHUPOBJECTLib" Where mdMUIncrementalClass is a class in the DLL and mdMATCHUPOBJECTLib is the namespace. This works perfectly in C#/VisualStudio with the same DLL (I am basically using the exact same code in C# and Ruby). If it helps, this is an Interop DLL created by Visual Studio from a COM DLL. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. _______________________________________________ Ironruby-core mailing list Ironruby-core@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ironruby-core This e-mail and any attachments are intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
