Rather than just releasing builds, I'm waiting on the OK from the ASP.NET to release to source code for it, so it can be included in the IronPython releases and the Codeplex sources/daily builds. That seems like a much better solution. =) I'll keep you posted (I've been in conference-mode for the past couple months, so things have been slow, sorry!).

Cheers, Giles Dave Fugate wrote: Hello Python Community, We're pleased to announce the release of IronPython 2.6 Alpha 1. As you might imagine, this release is all about supporting new CPython 2.6 features such as the 'bytes' and 'bytearray' types (PEP 3112), decorators for classes (PEP 3129), advanced string formatting (PEP 3101), etc. The minimum .NET version required for this release is the same as IronPython 2.0; namely .NET 2.0 Service Pack 1. Unlike the 2.0 series of IronPython, we plan to release only a couple Alphas and Betas of IronPython 2.6. As such, it's key that we get your feedback on the release(s) quickly to incorporate requested changes. Besides CPython 2.6 features, another significant change in this release is that ipy.exe now uses "adaptive compilation" by default. Adaptive compilation is a technique in which IronPython: 1. Interprets and executes Python method calls up to /N/ times for a given method. If you're only going to execute a method a few times, it's typically faster to interpret the method instead of compiling and executing it 2. Compiles and executes the Python method call on the /N+1/ invocation of the method. Compilation of a Python method is a heavyweight operation, but we can reuse the result for subsequent invocations 3. Reuses the previously compiled method for new calls to the Python method. This operation is much faster than interpreting the method call as the method was already compiled in the previous step The reason for this change is that it provides a nice performance gain for Python code containing lots of functions/methods that only get called a few times. All this said, this feature is still undergoing active development and as a consequence some Python scripts may actually run slower with it turned on. For this reason, our old default mode of running Python scripts is still available by passing the -O or -D flags to ipy.exe. Any feedback on how this new feature affects your IronPython applications performance-wise would be greatly appreciated. There's also a few minor changes since IronPython 2.0.1 that are worth calling out here: * IronPython.msi now installs NGEN'ed binaries by default * IronPython.msi now offers a little more selection with respect to what you'd like to install. For example, Silverlight templates are optional * The default installation location of IronPython.msi no longer indicates whether the 2.6 release is an Alpha, Beta, or a patched release. Future IronPython 2.6 installations will replace previous 2.6 releases which will be uninstalled automatically * The -X:PreferComInteropAssembly flag has been removed. All COM interop is now done through normal COM dispatch You can download IronPython 2.6 Alpha 1 at: http://ironpython.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=22982 The IronPython Team ------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com<mailto:Users@lists.ironpython.com> http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com<mailto:Users@lists.ironpython.com> http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com -- nomadlife.org<http://nomadlife.org> _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com<mailto:Users@lists.ironpython.com> http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com -- Adam Brand Managing Partner SilverKey Technologies Direct: +1-312-239-6722 Main: +1-312-951-7525 Skype: adamsilverkey Email: ad...@silverkeytech.com<mailto:ad...@silverkeytech.com> www.silverkeytech.com<http://www.silverkeytech.com>
