I'm currently trying to access both a managed and unmanaged DLL. The former gives me access to a high resolution encoder via USB and the latter our motion control system also via USB using ctypes.
I'll need to mix this kind of this often during our development cycle and I'm looking for a long term solution.
IronPython works surprisingly well but I'm not sure IronClad is quite there to give me access to ctypes. Also the load time is slow when running scripts quickly back-to-back which I do often.
Python for .NET looks to be a nice solution because I can access the CPython stuff without worry but I find the documentation lacking and it's unclear how active this project is. On the documentation side I just find these .zip downloads but I could not find the installers that are mentioned to integrate with an existing 2.7 installation Python.
So is this dying? Will you share with me why you are using this rather than IronPython?
I hope this doesn't sound harsh. I think these kinds of efforts are fantastic.
Thanks,
Kenny
