I was wondering if I could get some insight into how much of the Python for .NET framework could be ported to the Compact Framework? Python is still my language of choice, and it would be wonderful to use it to develop on the PocketPC. This framework seems to be the ideal interop layer to help me do this effectively. Currently we have two separable goals. First is to be able to use python libraries from VB or C# on the PocketPC. Second is to be able to use WindowsForms exclusively from python.
In my investigation, I worked through compiling pythonnet for the compact framework, and found a heavy dependence on system.reflection.emit, which is not available on the Compact Framework. (Which makes me grumpy, but that's another matter ;) This brings me to the question of how much of pythonnet is dependent on system.reflection.emit? Can we achieve either of the above goals? If it is possible, I'd love to help move this forward for the crippled Compact Framework. In this case, I'd like to talk with someone to get an overview of the architecture. Thanks! -Shane Holloway _________________________________________________ Python.NET mailing list - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythondotnet
