Hi,
You are right it is not mature. I use it, because the editing and project handling is ok. I have obstructed a lot features in order to have it work: - The project management is good as usual. - The genereated code is not good, so I have obstructed it too. - The editing is ok - Intellisense is stopped. - Tabs ar set to 30 spaces, so I can see the wrong indentions. - It is possible to debug your own code ignoring with patience a lot of code not debuggable. - Two windows can be open at the same as in Emacs C-x, C-2 - Produce compiled Python, which can not be used from the Ipy interpreter. Missing features: - Correct intellisense including correct indention. - Go to defintion should work. - Debugger have to step over silenty undebuggable IronPython code in external assemblies. - The design should produce correct and editable IronPython code. - A way to interact with running windows.forms once Application.Run() is called, you can not give any python commands. I have found it reasonable to write small interactive test with JEdit using the Ipy.exe python interpreter on the side (import module - run test C-Z exit). Looking forward to a new version og the Studio, but the people behind are busy earning money.
