Hi! Can someone tell me how to set PYTHONPATH variable in code when working with Python.Runtime.dll without changing the value in the system variables before.

Thank you very much! It will be helpful for us to know which platform (Windows [Mono or .NET] vs Linux) where this is happening.

Re: [Python.NET] Is there a chance to imprive Python for .net to let "System.Windows.Forms.Form().Controls" be indexable?

Hi Barton, Thanks for your reply,I really appriciate! Here is my thought: 在 2011年9月4日上午3:35，Barton <barton(a)bcdesignswell.com>写道： > ** > Yes, I agree that the Item Property is still there. > It seems to be exposed ONLY FROM IEnumerator.GetEnumerator() or the > Findxxx() functions provided by the class due to its virtual nature: > > public *virtual *Control this [ int index ] { get; } > * * I don't think the Item Property isn't exposed due to its virtual nature. I did some test in C#,it turns out that the virtual modified Item property can be accessed by python .net with the index manner .I noticed there is a new function "get_Item" being add to the instance object. The same new function "get_Item" can be find in the Form().Controls but Form().Controls can not be indexable. It is wield. I check the source code of python for .net and find this from "classmanager.cs": // Check for indexer ParameterInfo[] args = pi.GetIndexParameters(); if (args.GetLength(0) > 0) { Indexer idx = ci.indexer; if (idx == null) { ci.indexer = new Indexer(); idx = ci.indexer; } idx.AddProperty(pi); continue; } Maybe the mechanism of checking for indexer is not perfect?

patch - further makefile changes based on OSX building
by Bradley Friedman 04 Sep '11

04 Sep '11

I just checked out trunk and ran through the process of making it work for OSX in pursuit of a more perfect build system. Thought I'd share the results (and diff). To accomplish this, I had to set up the PKG_CONFIG_PATH manually to point to the version of python I wanted to use, and to the mono I wanted to use. And as you can see in the diff, I had to pull some bad code out that wasn't using pkg-config, where it really should be. I suspect the contentious part will be where I remove an evaluation of python code into distutils, and instead use pkg-config to get the flags. I think both of these changes really strongly point to a need for a "configure" script. Getting build flags from the currently resolving shell command "python" doesn't really take into account the reality that python is often compiled directly into 3rd party applications… such as say, Maya or Nuke, from the visual effects world of applications. These are valid alternative cpython runtimes that are installed and will be able to take the clr module if the build system allows you to configure to target them rather than the one that happens to run when you type "python" at a shell. As far as the mono version goes… I actually have three. A binary package installed form the mono project's download page. An alternative build out of mac-ports. And… the one I actually built against, a build of the latest released tar ball, turning on their experimental 64bit support. There are issues with the others as they are 32bit only… and in lion land.. well we've gone 64bit and its a mess. But I figure: that it builds against a proper 64bit version, when you provide it, is a good thing. Anyhow, with the changes in the diff and the extra step of configuring the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable by hand, it builds and I can import clr in the system installed python2.7. And I can run some methods off the System.IO.Path class. So well… TADA! Attached is a diff of what I did. Dunno if you want to consider applying it. I have not tested it on ubuntu, redhat or windows. But I'm curious as to thoughts on what I did. Thanks. -brad

Is there a chance to imprive Python for .net to let "System.Windows.Forms.Form().Controls" be indexable?
by 刘振海 03 Sep '11

03 Sep '11

Hi, here is the code: import clr clr.AddReference("System.Windows.Forms") from System.Windows.Forms import Form,Application,Button form=Form() form.Controls.Add(Button()) print form.Controls[0] #this code didnt work with an error say "not indexable object" but this worked in ironpython,it seems in ironpython it treats the "form.Controls" as an list like object I can only get the form.Controls value use the "form.Controls.get_Item(0)" in the python for .net So is there a chance to imprive Python for .net to have that characteristic? thanks

Several patches to improve compilation with Mono
by Philip Lorenz 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

Hi, after trying to compile Python for .NET on ArchLinux x86_64 I have run into several issues which the attached patches fix: 1. Enable Mono config file loading. Otherwise a Python build with UCS4 Unicode strings does not work as the Mono.Posix module cannot find msvcrt (which is mapped to libc in Mono's config files). 2. Python.Runtime.dll.config is missing mappings for Python 2.7 3. The architecture detection code in the Makefile did not work correctly (checking for the 86 substring is true for both x86 as well as x86_64 targets). 4. I have renamed the clrmodule.il target in the Makefile to clrmodule_make.il. Otherwise a fresh SVN checkout would not build as clrmodule.il is already included. 5. Adapt the clrmod Makefile to support Mono 2.8 pkgconfig change. Additionally, retrieve Glib 2 options from its pkgconfig and compile the x86_64 build with -fPIC. 6. Support the standard DESTDIR parameter for the install target. Additionally, install Python.Runtime.dll and Python.Runtime.dll.config to the site-packages folder so it is found by the clr module. If you have any comments or if there are any issues with these patches please let me know. Philip
