Not quite sure how this fits in with Java and Android, but throwing those out of the picture (let's say we're on the Windows Phone 7 and we don't have access to RefEmit), this too can actually potentially be handled by __clrtype__ :) You'll just need to run NewTypeMaker in a mode where it saves to disk (we can already do this I believe for debug builds where we want to verify the IL is legal). Then you just need a metaclass which goes off to the pre-compiled assembly and loads it rather than generating it. I can definitely see the desire to bring it all together in one tool though as there's now lots of moving parts. _______________________________________________ Ironpython-users mailing list Ironpython-users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/ironpython-users
