iron python was released
Hi pypy-dev, just in case you missed it (i know i did so far), IronPython has been released: http://www.ironpython.com/ on 28th of July. It is an (incomplete) port of Python to the Common Lanuage Runtime (CLR) of Microsoft's .NET. And the author, Jim Hugunin, will begin to work for Microsoft on 2nd of August (read more about it on the web site above). If anyone has tried it out already feel free to share your impressions. So far, I only skimmed the source code (c#) a bit because it doesn't seem to be easily runnable on linux. cheers, holger

Well, it ran out of the box on Linux, with Debian mono package. (Release 1.0) Looks decent. Mono seems to have problems handling int overflow, so Parrotbench failed. From reading others, it seems it doesn't fail on MS.NET. With Mono, Pystone numbers were about same as CPython 2.3. Has minimal "re" module as a thin wrapper around System.Text.RegularExpression. Writing "socket" would be an interesting excercise. Someone did run Gtk# hello world with IronPython. I will play more with it today. :-)

I got it to run fairly easily on friday: apt-get install mono mono bin/IronPythonConsole.exe or: mono bin/IronPythonConsole.exe <some code> The CLR is cool that way. :) Regards, Martijn
