I note that effort is now going forward to port pywin32 to IronPython. When that happens, my code will break, because it uses:
<code>
try:
    import win32com.client
    onIronPython = False
except ImportError:  # implies running on IronPython
    onIronPython = True
</code>
in order to detect which environment it is on.

I should change this for the next version of adodbapi.

Question for the group:
  What is a better/best way to test for IronPython vs CPython?

sys.platform == 'cli'

P.S.
 Robert:
Thanks for documenting this. I am contemplating a new fork of adodbapi based on ADO.NET <http://ADO.NET> rather than COM (my target is Linux/mono so COM is out of the question.) I will very likely run into this problem when/if I make that jump.
