[Python.NET] Using Third Party C# Libraries

[Maksim Kozyarchuk]

Haven't seen this before.  Sorry. 


Do you have .NET 2.0 installed on your machine?

I've copied SharpNeatLib.dll to C:\Program Files\PythonNet, C:\Program
Files\PythonNet\Lib, C:\Program Files\PythonNet\Lib\site-packages,
C:\Program Files\Python24, C:\Program Files\Python24\Lib, and
C:\Program Files\Python24\Lib\site-packages  but it still raises that
exception "ImportError:  cannot import name SharpNeatLib".

Using Assembly.Load("SharpNeatLib.dll") raises a different exception:

>>> Assembly.Load('SharpNeatLib.dll')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
CLR.System.BadImageFormatException: Version 2.0 is not a compatible
version.
   at System.Reflection.Assembly.nLoadImage(Byte[] rawAssembly, Byte[]
rawSymbol
Store, Evidence evidence, StackCrawlMark& stackMark)
   at System.Reflection.Assembly.Load(Byte[] rawAssembly)

Would this indicate that the SharpNeatLib.dll was built with a C#
compiler incompatible with what Python.Net was built with?
