[Ironpython-users] Dotted assembly names and import

[Geoffrey Bantle]

Hello,

I have a question about assemblies compiled with pyc.py. If you just name
them normally like, "Foobar.dll" or "Snafu.dll" you can add a reference
to them and import them into IronPython as one would expect. If however
you name them like "Foobar.Snafu.dll" you can add a reference to them
but it does not seem like you can import them at all. You are given the
error:

"ImportError: No module named Snafu"

Is this intended behavior? My understanding is that dotted assembly names
are quite common in .Net and I have a project where I would like to have
assemblies compiled by pyc.py to sit side by side with assemblies written
in C#. Maybe this is not the natural way to do things?

Any help is appreciated.

Best Regards,
