Thanks for the info Dave. However, I still smell a catch here :-)

What means no build support for IronPython 2.6.x and Silverlight 4 - considering the functionality? Can I use all functionality of Silverlight 4 with Silverlight 3 based assemblies? What is a difference between Silverlight 3 and Silverlight 4 based assemblies?

Hi Lukas, the deal is IronPython 2.6.x (where x>0) will /run/ against .NET 2.0 SP1, .NET 4.0, Silverlight 3, and *Silverlight 4*. You'll only be able to /build/ IronPython 2.6.x against .NET 2.0 SP1, .NET 4.0, and Silverlight 3 though. In other words, we will not be back porting Silverlight 4 /build/ support to the 2.6.x release series as we're really trying to limit 2.6.2 and later 2.6.x releases to bug fixes only.

With IronPython 2.7, we'll provide .NET 4.0 and Silverlight 4 based assemblies. This said, we intend on continuing to provide the capability of /building/ IronPython 2.7 against .NET 3.5 and Silverlight 3 via IronPython sources obtained from the DLR CodePlex source repository.

Thanks,

Dave

I am a little bit confused about Silverlight, .NET and IronPython versions.

Here is a list what I think is valid, please correct me if I am wrong:

    * IronPython 2.6.1 supports Silverlight 3 + .NET 2 SP1
    * IronPython 2.6.1 does not support Silverlight 4 + .NET 2 SP1 or
      Silverlight 4 + .NET 4
    * IronPython 2.7 will support Silverlight 4 + .NET 4


What will IronPython 2.6.2 support?

I'd actually suggest doing this with 2.7 Alpha 1 sources...

*Building* 2./6.1/ requires a Silverlight /3./x installation as there were changes to System.Core (e.g., System.Func) between Silverlight 3.x and Silverlight 4.x. As you've discovered, we implemented some of this missing System.Core functionality ourselves in 2.6.1 which is confusing the compiler when there's references to both (4.x) System.Core and MS.Scripting.Utils. If you can't get your hands on a Silverlight 3.x installation to fix this, the next easiest route IMO would be to use 2.7A1 instead.

Thanks. Copying my current Silverlight version 4.0.50524.0 to 3.0.50106.0 helped and Microsoft.Scripting.dll compiles fine. Now I get many following errors for Microsoft.Dynamic.dll:

Error 1 'Func' is an ambiguous reference between 'System.Func<T0,T1,T2,T3,T4,TRet>' and 'Microsoft.Scripting.Utils.Func<T0,T1,T2,T3,T4,TRet>' C:\IronPython-2.6.1\Src\Runtime\Microsoft.Dynamic\Interpreter\Instructions\CallInstruction.Generated.cs 278 70 Microsoft.Dynamic

How can I tell Visual Studio to use reference from Microsoft.Scripting.Utils? Thanks.

Hi Lukas, the error message below is because you don't have the version of Silverlight installed which was used to build IronPython 2.6.1. For this particular release, I believe it was something like "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Silverlight\3.0.40624.0". You can find out for sure by examining the "<Silverlight3Path>" element in Src\IronPython\IronPython.csproj. Any ways, there are two workarounds:

Replace all instances of "3.0.40624.0" throughout all C# project files with the version of Silverlight you have installed locally

Copy and rename the version of Silverlight you have installed to whatever is expected by the C# project files

Hope that helps,

Dave

Hi all,
I have one wish for the next release of IronPython 2.6.2 (hope it is not too late...) - please make sure it is possible to build IronPython binaries from sources. I have downloaded IronPython-2.6.1-Src-Net20SP1.zip <http://ironpython.codeplex.com/releases/view/36280#DownloadId=116512> and I there is no way for me to build Silverlight binaries from it...

I have opened the solution in VS 2010, solution file was converted to the new version, I selected 'Silverlight Debug' as a solution configuration and I received meny errors as below when building Microsoft.Scripting.dll:

Error 11 The type 'System.SerializableAttribute' exists in both 'c:\IronPython-2.6.1\Bin\Silverlight Debug\Microsoft.Scripting.Core.dll' and 'c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\mscorlib.dll' C:\IronPython-2.6.1\Src\Runtime\Microsoft.Scripting\ArgumentTypeException.cs 20 6 Microsoft.Scripting Error 12 The type or namespace name 'Serializable' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\IronPython-2.6.1\Src\Runtime\Microsoft.Scripting\ArgumentTypeException.cs 20 6 Microsoft.Scripting

My goal was to build debug-able Microsoft.Scripting.Silverlight.dll because I'm receiving AddReference error which I'd like to inspect.
