Hello all,
The following code dies in Silverlight:

clr.AddReference("System.Xml")
"System.Xml" in [assembly.GetName().Name for assembly in clr.References]
SystemError: Security transparent method
System.Reflection.Assebly.GetName() cannot access
Microsoft.Scripting.Actions... using reflection.
This is making it less useful to port the IronPython dotnet integration
tutorial to Try Python. :-)
Repeated calls throw a slightly different error in the end (still a
system error - but a different message).
This is actually just a limitation inside of Silverlight. For some reason
Assembly.GetName() is a security critical method and cannot be called. It
also fails in a simple C# Hello world app with:
Attempt by security transparent method
'SilverlightApplication1.MainPage..ctor()' to access security critical method
'System.Reflection.Assembly.GetName()' failed.
I have no clue why this limitation exists (maybe some information disclosure
issue?) but I think you could do:
AssemblyName(assembly.FullName).Name
Ok - thanks. I'll switch the example to do that instead. I created an
issue for this, so you could add this as a comment and close it.
All the best,
Michael
instead.
