Best if Michael et al chime in, but my impression was that they're working under the assumption that you cannot get C++ code to compile to pure managed (False, use C++/CLI as recommended on the Mono site), and that it must *compile* under Mono (laudable, but I doubt it's necessary -- I've never bothered to recompile the Python Libraries).
A larger worry I have is the possibility that some of this will end up being unsafe code, at which point you will have difficulties in full trust scenarios, such as web servers. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joe Mason Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 3:05 PM To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: Re: [IronPython] [python] Re: Announcement: Project to getsomeCPython C extensions running under IronPython On 10/17/07, Keith J.

Couldn't the C/C# API just use IronPython objects and methods to "implement" the Python standard library? _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
