<p class=MsoNormal>Hello IronPython Community,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We have just released IronPython 2.0 Alpha 8. Aside
from the usual bugs fixes this release includes a fairly major change.
This is the first release of IronPython where the Visual Studio solution file,
IronPython.sln, is in Visual Studio 2008 (VS2008) format. This file is in
fact incompatible with Visual Studio 2005 (VS2005) and the msbuild executable
distributed with the .NET 2.0 SDK. If you currently build IronPython from
VS2005 or the .NET 2.0 SDK this change will affect you and you have at least a
couple of available options:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span
style='mso-list:Ignore'>1.<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>
</span></span><![endif]>Upgrade to .NET 3.5 (<a
href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6&displaylang=en">http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6&displaylang=en</a>)
or VS2008. It’s important to point out that internally we pass the
“/toolsversion:2.0” flag to msbuild when building from a command
prompt. This isn’t mandatory though and the reason we use it is to
ensure IronPython continues to run under .NET 2.0.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span
style='mso-list:Ignore'>2.<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>
</span></span><![endif]>Continue to build IronPython under VS2005 or the .NET
2.0 SDK using IronPython2005.sln. IronPython2005.sln is the VS2005
version of IronPython.sln and exists alongside IronPython.sln in the source
distribution zip file. We do not recommend this however as
IronPython2005.sln is deprecated and we don’t plan on updating it<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Another notable change is that all built-in Exception
classes are now new-style classes (see <a
href="http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/pep-352.html">http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/pep-352.html</a>).
This improves our CPython 2.5 compatibility and we’re now able to run
quite a few more CPython 2.5 tests successfully. On that note, a lot of
effort has gone into making IronPython pass more of CPython’s 2.5 tests.<o:p></o:p></p>
