Interesting. Which of the two is "better"? Is there a performance tradeoff turning it on or off with COM objects which do or do not implement IDispatch?

With it enabled we'll first check for IDispatch then to see if we can get the TypeInfo, w/o it we'll check for the TypeInfo (via IProvideClassInfo or via IDispatch) and then try IDispatch if that fails. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Martin Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 7:35 AM To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: [IronPython] -X:PreferComDispatch Hi, Can anyone eleaborate a bit more on the -X:PreferComDispatch option? Does it mean extended support for standard libraries? What does the prefer part stand for as in prefer com over what?
