Hi Brett,
to check your suggestion I added a print statement to the script (after
clr.AddReference("xiAPI40.NET"):
print sys.path
The result looks ok to me:
['C:\\Users\\mdk\\workspace\\camera\\',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\distribute-
0.6.21-py2.7.egg', 'C:\\Python27\\DLLs', 'C:\\Python27\\lib',
'C:\\Python27\\lib
\\plat-win', 'C:\\Python27\\lib\\lib-tk', 'C:\\Python27',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\si
te-packages',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg-inf
o',
'C:\\Users\\mdk\\.eclipse\\org.eclipse.platform_4.2.0_248562372\\plugins\\or
g.python.pydev_2.7.1.2012100913\\pysrc\\pydev_sitecustomize',
'C:\\Windows\\syst
em32\\python27.zip', 'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\PIL',
'C:\\Python27\\lib
\\plat-win',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg-info

'C:\\Wi
ndows\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework64\\v4.0.30319\\']
I also copied the folder to a temp folder and run the script from there
without adding the new path explicitly to the python path.
The new location is then automatically added to the path, and the console
output looks the similar.
C:\temp\camera> python.exe .\testcam.py
['C:\\temp\\camera',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\distribute-0.6.21-py2.7.egg',
'C:\\Windows\\system32\\python27.z
ip', 'C:\\Python27\\DLLs', 'C:\\Python27\\lib',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\plat-win', 'C:\\Python27\\lib\\lib-tk', 'C:\\Python2
7', 'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\PIL',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\setu
ptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg-info',
'C:\\Windows\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework64\\v4.0.30319\\',
'C:\\Users\\mdk\\workspace\\camera\\']
Traceback (most recent call last):
File ".\testcam.py", line 9, in <module>
cam.OpenDevice(0)
System.ApplicationException: Error 1: OpenDevice: Invalid handle
