Do you have a using statement for IronPython.Hosting? If you add that you should get the extension method showing up on ScriptEngine.
As for tracing the hosting level - can you describe what you mean? Do you have additional hosting code written in Python? -----Original Message----- From: Doug Blank [mailto:doug.bl...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, September 24, 2011 5:47 PM To: Dino Viehland; ironpython-users@python.org Subject: Re: [Ironpython-users] Options for debugger for DLR languages on Mono On Sat, Sep 24, 2011 at 5:09 PM, Dino Viehland <di...@microsoft.com> wrote: > You should be able to do engine.GetSysModule().settrace(func) and > then do the Execute call (this is using C# dynamic to invoke settrace). > > GetSysModule is an extension method in IronPython.Hosting. I didn't see GetSysModule for some reason in IronPython 2.7.... perhaps a Mono issue, or maybe I'm not importing it correctly? But I was able to: IronPython.Hosting.Python.GetSysModule(engine).settrace(trace) source = engine.CreateScriptSourceFromFile(filename) source.Compile() source.Execute(scope) However, it ended up tracing the hosting level, rather than the source. Is that an IronPython issue? Or user error? Is there another way to inject a trace in an execution? -Doug >> -----Original Message----- >> From: ironpython-users- >> bounces+dinov=exchange.microsoft....@python.org [mailto:ironpython- >> users-bounces+dinov=exchange.microsoft....@python.org] On Behalf Of >> Doug Blank >> Sent: Saturday, September 24, 2011 10:48 AM >> To: Dino Viehland >> Cc: ironpython-users@python.org >> Subject: Re: [Ironpython-users] Options for debugger for DLR >> languages on Mono >> >> Use of sys.settrace (especially with the bdb.py) makes the Python >> debugger really easy.
