Re: [Python.NET] Any plans for supporting CLR2.0?
Hi Brian, I must say that Python.NET feels like an approach I would use more than IronPython. I like being able to mix both C extensions and .NET extensions together. I haven't had a need for .NET functionality yet, but if I do it will have to be Python.NET because the rest of my code makes extensive use of ctypes.

Dear all,
I'd like to integrate CPython- and Boo-programs. As I am already on CLR2.0 I wonder when Python for .NET could be available for CLR2.0. As its install file suggests it is ready for CLR1.1 only, right?
Kind regards Franz GEIGER
The pre-built versions I post are currently built for 1.1, but you should be able to build it against 2.x with minimal pain (though it wont support 2.x-only features, of course). Michael Eddington posted a build against 2.0 back in October: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythondotnet/2005-October/000406.html I hope to get some time starting in Feb. to work on some bugs that have been reported and implement support for generics, etc. I've been slacking off a bit lately given that IronPython really seems to be taking off, but it seems like it would still be useful to have a native bridge with support for at least the bigger changes in CLR 2.x.

I am second to this opinion. If I do not want\need to embed Python within CLR or .NET application I definitely do not want to install and use an other Python interpreter. CPython interpreter works fine. Just my opinion.

Thanks Mark

There's also the fact that IronPython is too young and requires .NET 2.0. For people who already have a mature application, use 1.1, and/or is already in production IMHO Python.NET is the way to go. -H.
