[Ironpython-users] Loading python compiled with clr.CompileModule

[Josiah Kiehl]

Sorry if I'm not understanding... when you say "full framework version", do
you mean the stand alone executable, ipy.exe?

I compiled the dll with ipy.exe running a simple script:

> ipy compile.py

# compile.py
import clr

clr.CompileModules("compiled.dll", "test.py")

This works just fine.

Then I tried to load "compiled.dll" via the embedded IronPython in a simple
dotnet CLI app and it produces the above error:

ScriptEngine engine = Python.CreateEngine();
engine.Runtime.LoadAssembly(Assembly.LoadFile(@"C:\some\path\compiled.dll"));
var scope = engine.Runtime.ImportModule("test");

Is that what's not supported? Loading the dll in the embedded IronPython?

Thanks for your help, I am super hopeful I can get this working.
