So if I follow your lead at http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ironpython/custom_executable.shtml

it looks like I need to modify this code to call my complied DLL instead of the pythonsource code?
            string path = Path.Combine(
                Path.GetDirectoryName(Application.ExecutablePath),
                                      "main.py");
            engine.ExecuteFile(path);

Is that right? My end goal it to produce an exe that I can wrap up into an installer and distribute to people without ironpython installed.

Once I get a working example, I'll post a detailed explanation back to this group for the benefit of the others coping with the transition from IronPython 1.0 to 2.0.


That article is for IronPython 1 as it says at the start. It sounds like that is what you want.

If you want IronPython 2 then you are better off with this article:

PS If you tell me that your book has all of the detail, I'll get the early access version ASAP.

        Problem #1
        I know this is a know issue, but my google-fu has been able to
        uncover the solution.  When I compile my script into an exe ,
        sys.argv get sets to ' '.

        Using SharpDevelop and Ironpython 2.0.1

        #Program.py
        #
        import clr
        clr.AddReference('mscorlib')
        clr.AddReference('System')
        import sys
        import System

        if __name__ == 'Program':
           try:
               print "sys.argv = ",sys.argv
           except System.Exception, e:
               print e

        yeilds output of
        C:\Program Files\IronPython 2.0.1\Samples\pyc>Program.exe fred
        sys.argv =  ['']

        instead of the expected
        sys.argv['fred']

        Problem #2:

        If I drag and drop a file onto the exe, I get a exception
        message that I can't see.  In IronPython 1.0, the dropped file
        would populate sys.argv

        Hopefully someone can answer or direct me to better source.



    Creating a custom C# executable that embeds the IronPython engine,
    starts your application, and populates sys.argv is the best
    workaround for these problems.
