IMHO, this is a feature that should be enabled via a command-line switch; you can't back out of your choice that you make at startup time without potentially serious consequences.
I'm doing this via a command line switch + a trampoline function in my Ruby CLR bridge. It seems to be the best approach (even though there are still corner cases in the way I do it since there's no way for me to prevent someone else from turning on COM before the CLR (and my stuff) is delay-loaded.

Good to know this :) Seems that when I remove it, I caused problems for more people than I helped. As I said in my previous email to Jacques, I am going to fix this for the next release. If there is no beter way to do that, I am going to put the [STAThread] attribute back. It is also the workaround for the time being. Thanks for the bug report, Keith!

Farmer Sent: Monday, December 12, 2005 1:51 AM To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: [IronPython] Problems with tutorials Encountering a variety of problems with the agents tutorial: a = AgentServerClass() -> should not have () ? a.Load("Merlin.acs") -> throws bad args exception for the Load() method. Doesn't change if I use C:\WINDOWS\msagent\chars\merlin.acs, which exists on my machine. Also doesn't work if I call AgentServerClass.Load("merlin.acs"). NB: I'm using x64. With the Avalon tutorial, I get "can't set arbitrary attributes on built-in type System.Windows.Window" when I try w.Text = "My Avalon Application". Trying to retrieve w.Text gives no-such-attribute error. w.Title does exist, however. w.Content.TextContent should be w.Content.Text, I think. w.Content.PersistentAnimations doesn't exist, and I don't see any likely rename. ----- Keith J.
