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.

Regards,

  Adam
