<p class="MsoNormal">I was wondering whether it is possible to use IronPython without installing it. I would like to xcopy-deploy it and was hoping there is some mechanism the CreateEngine() can use to point it at the deployed IronPython.</p>

If you're embedding, please use the assemblies in the Platforms directory.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Python.CreateEngine() will use whatever version is referenced based on the usual .NET search paths and assembly resolution rules.</div><div><br></div><div>You can also use NuGet if that works in your environment.</div>
<div><br></div><div>One catch is that, because the assemblies are strong-named and the installer puts them in the GAC, you may get versioning issues on machines that have a different version installed. 2.7.5 will mitigate this and 3.0 will fix it entirely.</div>
