[IronPython] Help with Ops.GetAttr

[Paul Turbett]

Hi,

I'm attempting to get an attribute from python object from C# using a 
method like this:

public object GetAttr(object pyObject, string name)
{
   ICallerContext context = _pythonEngine.DefaultModule as ICallerContext;
   object value = Ops.GetAttr( context, pyObject, 
SymbolTable.StringToId(name));
   return value;
}

where _pythonEngine is a PythonEngine object, pyObject is a python 
object and name is the attribute I want to get.

According to other posts I've seen, this should work, but the first line 
sets context to null. How to I get a valid context?

It seems every way I've read about to get the context 
(DefaultContext.Default, GetModuleScope) is private, and therefore 
inaccessible.

I'm using IPY 1.1.1

TIA, Paul
