[Ironpython-users] Run a WPF application written in IronPython on the client computer without the install IronPython

[sepatan at sibmail.com]

Hello).
With the advice Matt Ward, thanks to him, the problem was solved as follows:
1) had to change avalon.py as follows:
commented out 2 lines
.............
t = Thread(ThreadStart(start))
t.IsBackground = True
t.ApartmentState = ApartmentState.STA
#t.Start()
#are.WaitOne()
..............

2) changed the file primer.py:
from avalon import *
import calculator
global app
global dispatcher
app = Application()
app.Startup += on_startup
w = Window()
w.Title = "My Avalon Application"
w.Content = LoadXaml("calc.xaml")
calculator.enliven(w)
app.Run(w)
w.Show()

3) after compilation:
c:\IronPython\ipy.exe pyc.py /main: primer.py /target: winexe /platform:
x86 /standalone
was working primer.exe
but ...
not without nuance):
after closing the window appears the system error message:
primer.exe - an error is detected. The application will be closed. We are
We apologize for any inconvenience.
If the work was not finished, operational data may be lost.
This message did not have to be.
Maybe there is someone the idea.)

Thank you.
