You need to use const_get to access classes/namespaces whose names are not compatible with Ruby naming conventions. A module in Ruby must start with capital ASCII letter.
const_get(:mdMATCHUPOBJECTLib).const_get(:mdMUIncrementalClass).new should work.

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 _______________________________________________ Ironruby-core mailing list Ironruby-core@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ironruby-core
