PythonNet on Cygwin
by Nikhil Garg 21 Jun '17

Hi Guys, I was wondering if anyone knows how to make Python for .Net work on cygwin installation of python. I have been looking around and find a mixed bag of information. If anyone knows of the working version of Python for .Net and its dependency, I would appreciate if you could share it with me. Currently, I am using a generic windows version and it works just fine, but I need it to work on Cygwin version of python. I appreciate any helpful replies. Thanks, Nikhil

cx_freeze and python.net
by Boris Burdin 22 May '17

Hello everybody, I'm trying to build a python.net application using cx-freeze . Once the application is built, I put in my final folder the Python.Runtime.dll. but it stil doesn't seem to work . Actually, when I run the .exe file, nothing is happening. So, I wonder if there were something else to do, another dll to put in the folder, or any option to use with cx_freeze when building the application ? i would be very grateful if you could help me on this matter .. Thanks in advance, Boris

pythonnet appdomain(s)
by Adam Klein 07 Sep '16

Hello, Is there a design reason that pythonnet loads C# assemblies into its own AppDomain rather than establishing a separate AppDomain? It would be useful for instance when developing in C# in parallel with writing python code (say, in the ipython REPL) to be able to reload C# assemblies dynamically. Also, we've found it useful in Initialize() to enable shadow copying, to prevent file locking, ie internal static void Initialize() { ... AppDomain domain = AppDomain.CurrentDomain; // prevent file locking domain.SetShadowCopyFiles(); domain.SetShadowCopyPath(null); Although these are deprecated methods, and really it should be establishing a new AppDomain as above.

Debugging CPYTHON embedded in .NET
by Denis Akhiyarov 31 Jan '16

Dear users and developers of PythonNET: How do you debug CPython embedded in . NET? Did you find any reliable way to do this with IDE such as PTVS or Pycharm? PTVS offers mixed-mode and remote debugging, none of which seem to be usable with PythonNET. Thanks, Denis

Memory leak problem in function "AsManagedObject"
by Eliana Mendes 29 Jan '16

29 Jan '16

Hello experts, I'm having a memory leak problem when using the function AsManagedObject(typeof(double)). Basically I have something like this: PyTuple myTuple = PyTuple.AsTuple(result); double result0 = (double)myTuple[0].AsManagedObject(typeof(double)); double result1 = (double)myTuple[1].AsManagedObject(typeof(double)); myTuple.Dispose(); where "result" is just a PyObject that returned from a python function. I simplified the code above just so you can understand better, but the thing is that the line that calls "AsManagedObject” is executed thousands of times and it is increasing significantly the memory heap (it goes over 3 GB of memory in my scenario and it’s not released after execution). If I don't call just this specific function the memory remains stable. But I don’t know any other way to convert the PyObject to "double" unless using the “AsManagedObject” function. It sounds to me that some objects are allocated inside the "AsManagedObject" method and they are not being released. Maybe it’s a bug there. Any ideas? I'm using latest version of python for .NET. Thank you! Eliana Mendes Software Engineer

pythonnet 2.0.0 released
by Tony Roberts 29 Jan '16

29 Jan '16

Hi, I've finally gotten round to finishing off the last couple of things that were blocking an 'official' 2.0.0 release (to do with packaging as wheels/source dist). There is now a 2.0.0 release available on PyPI ( https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pythonnet), with binary wheels for Windows (32 and 64 bit) and a source distribution for Linux and Mac. The next task will be to integrate the changes from the renshawbay/pythonnet fork to add Python 3 support. cheers, Tony

Versions support

Hi there, Can someone tell me if Python.Net supports some newer Versions of Python (as 3.3) ? The only Python.Runtime DLL I could find was for 2.7 Version.
