I must have mistyped the GetType function the first time around because IronPython would find it otherwise.
The IronPython's logic to look-up built-in methods finds the method GetType on the __builtin__ class implementation. I don't have solution for this yet, but at least we understand what is going on :) Thanks! Martin > Ray Djajadinata Wrote: > > Hi Martin, > > Thanks, you spotted the source of the problem.
