Hi Bart,<br><br><div>I am no way an expert on this question, but it seem that your PythonNET is trying to load a different version of runtime than the one he was compiled against. You need to make sure the same runtime is built and used for python.exe. To make sure the 4.0 is used, you can create / edit the python.exe.config file (located in the same folder from where you start the newly compiled python.exe) with the following contents</div>
<div><br></div><div><div><?xml version="1.0"?></div><div><configuration></div><div><startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true"></div><div><supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/></div>
<div></startup></div><div></configuration></div></div><div><br></div><div>This will make sure the 4.0 is loaded (search on useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy for more info, normally 2.0 will be loaded).</div><div>
<br></div><div>If the above does not help here are a few questions that may point further direction: </div><div>- Have you compiled for 32 or 64 bits (there is an .il for 64 bits, but I haven't tried it myself)? </div>
<div>- Which version of runtime (2.0, 3.0/3.5, 4.0; x32 or x64 bits) do you have installed? </div><div>- Do you start on the same machine where your development environment is started or in a separate environment? </div><div>
<br></div><div>Regarding the startup time, do you experience slow start of pythonNET version one time or every time it is started? I can imagine it is slow the first time (as it has to load CLR), but the consequent starts have to be reasonably fast. </div>

Hi Oleskii,<br>
<br>
Thanks for the quick response.<br>
<br>
I searched on my system for the python26.dll and I found it in<br>
C:\Windows\SysWOW64.<br>
I copied it to c:\windows\system32\ and now I'm getting the following error:<br>
<br>
Unhandled Exception: System.BadImageFormatException: An attempt was made to load<br>
a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)<br>
<div class="im"> at Python.Runtime.Runtime.Py_Initialize()<br>
at Python.Runtime.Runtime.Initialize()<br>
at Python.Runtime.PythonEngine.Initialize()<br>
at Python.Runtime.PythonConsole.Main(String[] args)<br>
<br>
</div>Anny idea?<br>
<br>
I have installed python 2.6.6 (32-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows 7.<br>
<br>
The problem that we have with the .NET version of python.exe is that<br>
it takes some time before it starts.<br>
As we use python in our build environment, it significantly slows down<br>
our build process.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
