Yeah sorry for missing this and thanks for making sure we don't drop it. I would agree that this is a bug. I guess Int64.__module__ should really just be "System" and in general we shouldn't include the assembly name in the __module__ for built-in types. That makes it slightly less useful to read but more useful for programmatic use. Maybe we could add a new __assembly__ attribute to be more friendly to people.
If you don't open a bug on CodePlex I will.

We think it's a bug in 2.6.0 On Mon, Mar 22, 2010 at 1:53 PM, Ronnie Maor <ronnie.m...@gmail.com<mailto:ronnie.m...@gmail.com>> wrote: Just a clarification - the GetPythonType below is superfluous pickle.dumps(Int64) fails the same way seems that all python types that aren't native (i.e. shadow an existing CLR type) fail that way. Pickling the CLR type (RuntimeType) actually works.

Currently my workaround is to pickle the CS type and convert it to a python type after unpickling, please tell me if there is a better way.
