[IronPython] importing C# functions

[Stefan Rusek]

Tell him to look into using IronPython instead of normal python. IP is
written completely in C# and has really good .net support, and he should be
able to declare a static method and use it like normal function in python.

Does C# allow you to define functions outside of objects ? I didn't
think so...

You can create static methods on objects though.

For an example of creating a dll from C#, and then accessing from
IronPython, see :
