Hi, I posted this on StackOverflow but thought it might be a better question for this mailing list.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31530059/how-can-i-open-a-net- filestream-object-from-a-python-file-handle I'm trying to figure out how to transform an open Python file handle into a System.IO.FileStream object so that I can pass it to C# code. Here's what I've got so far. This produces the good ol' win32 (HANDLE*) object, I believe: import clr, msvcrt from Microsoft.Win32.SafeHandles import SafeFileHandle from System.IO import FileStream, FileAccess from System import IntPtr, Int32, Int64 pyf=open("c:/temp/testing123.txt","w") fileno=pyf.fileno() print fileno # 6 handle = msvcrt.get_osfhandle(fileno) print handle # 1832L Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to convince the clr module to cast this handle into something that I can use as an IntPtr, as required by the constructors of FileStream or SafeFileHandle. I've tried various versions of the following, but they all give me TypeError ("value cannot be converted to System.IntPtr"): FileStream(IntPtr(handle), True) FileStream(IntPtr(Int32(handle), True) SafeFileHandle(IntPtr(handle), True) Thanks, Dan Lenski _________________________________________________ Python.NET mailing list - PythonDotNet@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythondotnet
