http://www.python.org "python" is "cpython" when people talk about jpython or python.net or any other python, they use "cpython" to explicitly refer to THE "original" python. i believe this is because the low level python (cpython) libs and python interpreter are written in C. > -----Original Message----- > From: pythondotnet-bounces(a)python.org > [mailto:pythondotnet-bounces@python.org]On Behalf Of Leonard :paniq: > Ritter > Sent: Friday, February 27, 2004 1:05 PM > To: PythonDotNet(a)python.org > Subject: Re[2]: [Python.NET] Anyone or anything happening here? > > > > (whoops, sent to individual instead of mailing list first) > > i heard a lot of this mysterious "CPython", could anybody give me a > hint on how to get it and check it out? google doesnt give me useful > resuls. > > would be charming, if it is an x86 compiler for a typed python dialect > :) > > -- Leonard Ritter > -- paniq(a)gmx.net > -- http://www.paniq.de > -- http://www.the-mu.com > > Friday, February 27, 2004, 8:03:25 PM, you wrote: > > > Mcic> Actually, Hawkeye (and the OP) , it's yet a bit more > than that.

Actually, Hawkeye (and the OP) , it's yet a bit more than that. I agree that "it is not "Python.Net"" (it does not make Python run as a .NET language), but it does allow you to embed Python in a .NET app. In fact, as you're probably aware, the python.exe that you run when using Python for .NET in the conventional way (see documented examples) is a simple example of embedding Python in a (very small) .NET app, which in turn provides access to a very rich interface for calling back in the other direction. The viewpoint one has while using Python for .NET in the conventional way (running the CLR-enabled python.exe, importing CLR, and going from there) is that the CLR is acting as an appendage to Python. But in fact there is a duality in this architecture that is subtle but amazingly flexible. You might say that in this clever framework, Python and .NET are mutually embedded, which offers some unique possibilities similar to, but even more powerful than, Jython. BTW, Jython is pretty cool too, but I prefer Python for .NET because it is real CPython, so almost anything that you could do in Python before integrating it with .NET, you can still do. In Jython, any python code has to be available in source form so it can be compiled by Jython (at least once) whereasany Python byte code that works with the currently supported Python runtime (2.3 currently) will work with Python for .NET. The somewhat downplayed embedding capability is the aspect of Python for .NET that I am personally finding very useful, with the "calling back to .NET" feature being a very nice bonus, allowing the embedding .NET app to use Python to allow it to sort-of "script into itself".

buglet in module importing
by Greg Chapman 25 ফেব্রুয়ারি, 2004

25 ফেব্রুয়ারি, 2004

I just ran into this using the PythonNet-1.0-beta3 release. If you start interactive Python and do this: >>> import CLR.System.Resources No error is raised. However, the import has in fact failed: >>> from CLR.System.Threading import Thread >>> assemblies = Thread.GetDomain().GetAssemblies() >>> [a.FullName.split(',', 1)[0] for a in assemblies] [u'mscorlib', u'python', u'Python.Runtime', u'e__NativeCall_Assembly', u'System', u'System.Xml']. The System.Resources module is in the System.Windows.Forms assembly, but as you can see, that assembly has not been loaded. I believe the problem is that the above import statement ultimately ends up in a call to Assembly.LoadWithPartialName("System.Resources"). This fails because there is no such assembly. For some reason, this failure does not seem to be raising a Python exception, though I think it should. The workaround is to import System.Windows.Forms before importing System.Resources. --- Greg Chapman

Using an existing Python installation
by Mike Casaday 25 ফেব্রুয়ারি, 2004

25 ফেব্রুয়ারি, 2004

Python for .NET is really cool! Here's something I found out while trying to get it to work with my existing Python 2.3 installation. The README says: > **Can I use it with my existing Python installation?** > > Yes, at least on win32 systems. Just copy the files > Python.Runtime.dll and CLR.dll from the PythonNet directory to the > root directory of your python installation. > This answer comes with one caveat in my experience. For some reason you have to 'import CLR' before trying to import anything else from the .NET runtime. This isn't the case if I use the Python executable included in PythonNet-1.0-beta1.tgz, only if I use my existing Python installation. So this fails: from CLR.System.Reflection import Assembly Assembly.LoadWithPartialName('SomeNamespace') import CLR.SomeNamespace as SomeNamespace But this works: import CLR from CLR.System.Reflection import Assembly Assembly.LoadWithPartialName('SomeNamespace') import CLR.SomeNamespace as SomeNamespace Is it possible I'm doing something wrong (more than likely)? Is this a bug? Is this expected behavior? ZODB requires you to 'import ZODB' before you do certain things, so I wouldn't be surprised... ______________ mike P.S. I'm now playing around with the TrueVision3D game engine using Python, something that I couldn't really do until now. I'm happy I saw a link to this project from Daily Python-URL.

Hi, thanks for the response but have already solved the problem. The Assembly (which I had copied to the python dir) referenced another assembly (which I had not - although I think I may have been included in my path). Copying the referenced assembly to my python dir did the trick. Anyway, thanks for the product... has made my life (testing a .NET assembly) far easier. Find it far more productive writing test scripts in a scripting language than in C# development environment.

importing Assembly

I see that this has been asked before, but I must be missing something >>>import CLR.Company.Product.Module Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ImportError: No module named Company The dll I have is called: "Company.Product.Module.dll", and is copied into the python root dir The source code for the module defines namespace as "namespace Company.Product.Module" Also I try the following: >>>from CLR.System.Reflection import Assembly >>>a = Assembly.LoadWithPartialName('Company.Product.Module') >>>import CLR.Company.Product.Module Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ImportError: No module named Company please excuse any obvious ignorance of .NET terminology, it's something I've just started looking at.
