How are the assemblies getting loaded here?  Given the error message it seems like IronPython or some other DLL is getting loaded in a reflection only context.  IronPython and the DLR doesn't ever do that it's probably your own code which is doing that.  I would expect if you simply load the ExtensionAttribute assembly first (also as reflection only) then you'd be fine.

Hello,

We are experiencing the problem that is mentioned in this post using IronPython 2.6 RC 2 but are un-able to un-reference the associated assembly.  I am getting the following error:

Error      2              Unknown build error, 'Cannot resolve dependency to assembly 'Microsoft.Scripting.ExtensionAttribute, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' because it has not been preloaded. When using the ReflectionOnly APIs, dependent assemblies must be pre-loaded or loaded on demand through the ReflectionOnlyAssemblyResolve event.'

Would anyone have any insight into what is going on here?
