Thank you Michael,
I have seen the article you linked to.
I now would like to know how to access the IronPython assemblies
(modules?) in PyScripter (remember I'm pretty new to Python).
The answer to that is 'it depends', and what it depends on most is how
you organise your project. :-)
I would recommend IronPython in Action as giving you a good introduction
to topics like this, but then I would wouldn't I...
PyScripter almost certainly doesn't have any specific support for
IronPython so it won't 'recognise' *any* of the .NET things you use from
IronPython (which is why I recommended the article on IronPython IDEs)
but as a capable Python IDE you will still be able to use PyScripter for
editing your Python code - you'll just need to use external tools to run
them with IronPython.
Basically, to run a Python file with IronPython you run:
> path\to\ipy.exe path\to\ipy_script.py
ipy.exe has references to the IronPython assemblies and so will use them
automatically. Not *entirely* sure what you mean by " how to access the
IronPython assemblies (modules?) in PyScripter".
It doesn't immediately recognize the IronPython I try to import.
Also, how can I import assemblies from C# into an IronPython script?
To import from a C# assembly in IronPython the dll file must be
contained in a directory on sys.path. You first need to add a reference
to the assembly and then you can import from the namespaces it contains.
Code like:
import sys
sys.path.append(r'C:\path\to\assemblies')
import clr
clr.AddReference('AssemblyName')
import AssemblyName
Where the second AssemblyName is really a namespace. I hope that helps
at least a bit...
All the best,
Michael Foord
Thanks for the help,
