<div class=WordSection1>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’m trying to implement IronPython as a scripting
enhancement to our application.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Part of the design is to have an interactive screen
available.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>When I call the Execute() method with a command typed in by
the user, an object is returned.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I can easily write this to my window using _pythonRes.ToString()
if the result is a simple type like Int32.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>But I’ve had an impossible time trying to figure out
how to iterate over an IronPython.Runtime.List as returned by a command such as
dir() since it seems to not be enumerable.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Typecasting this object doesn’t to an array or a
List<> doesn’t seem to work.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Any help would be appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Being new to IronPython, I’m also a little worried
about other types that I may not be aware of, yet!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This is how I obtain my return value:<o:p></o:p></p>
