[Ironpython-users] Setting __name__ to __main__

[Markus Schaber]

Hi,

First, Sorry to all users which I mailed personally, this was not intentional. It seems that, even after several years of being forced to use it, Outlook and me are still not compatible. :-(

> I want to set the __name__ variable to "__main__" in the script I execute. However, it seems that the __name__ variable always is overridden with the filename of the executed file.

It seems I found a way to do it:


	ScriptEngine engine = Python.CreateEngine();
	ScriptScope mainScope = engine.CreateScope();

	ScriptSource scriptSource = engine.CreateScriptSourceFromFile("test.py", Encoding.Default, SourceCodeKind.File);

	PythonCompilerOptions pco = (PythonCompilerOptions) engine.GetCompilerOptions(mainScope);

	pco.ModuleName = "__main__";
	pco.Module |= ModuleOptions.Initialize;

	CompiledCode compiled = scriptSource.Compile(pco);
	compiled.Execute(mainScope);


Best regards

Markus Schaber
