[IronPython] strange runtime error hosting Iron Python in C# app

[Dino Viehland]

How exactly are you doing this?  If I take the code you've provided and put it into a .cs file, compile it to a DLL, and import it I get:

IronPython 1.1b1 (1.1) on .NET 2.0.50727.312
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
>>> import clr
>>> clr.AddReference('test')
>>> import FooUser, FooConcrete1
>>> FooUser.FooInt(FooConcrete1())
1
>>> ^Z

Are you doing something different?

Given a set of classes in a c# Library like the following:

    public interface IFoo
    {
        int Bar { get;}
    }

    public abstract class FooBase : IFoo
    {
        public abstract int Bar { get;}
    }

    public class FooConcrete1 : FooBase
    {
        public override int Bar { get { return 1; } }
    }

and a C# consumer:
       public class FooUser
    {
        public static int FooInt(IFoo a)
        {
            return a.Bar;
        }
    }

if I call FooInt from Python I'll get: "We Encountered an error: expected IFoo, got FooConcrete1".

I suspect the error stems from adding an assembly as a reference inside the python code in addition to referencing it in the C# project.  If this is the case, how do I make referenced assemblies visible to the hosted python module w/o using AddReference...?

Thanks,

Matt
