You can call __import__ directly and then use getattr() to get the values, such
as:
getattr(__import__('System'), 'Collections')
__import__ returns the top-level namespace so you'll need to handle each dot
yourself.

Subject: [IronPython] Dynamically import namespace from C# DLL
I am trying to figure out how to import types from a namesapce at run time. I
can do a from ... import * but my goal is only to
to import the types only when I need access to those types from a namespace and
the namespace is not known until it is calculated by
a request.
I tried the simpliest and straightforward
namespace = "A.B.C.TargetNameSpace"
from namespace import *
but that didn't work. I tried to figure out maybe I can leverage reflection. I
was able to get all the types from a given namespace
but I was stuck trying to expose these types to my other parts of my script.
I'm using 2.6.1. with .NET 3.5.
I appreciate any feeback.
Danny
