Perhaps I wasn't being clear: I have been able to use your suggested workaround to load .NET "Core" assemblies such as System.Xml etc.
My problem is that I don't have a working workaround for Assemblies like mapack.dll or my own assemblies which reside in some other directory (like the IronPython tutorial directory). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dino Viehland Sent: Friday, February 24, 2006 04:08 To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: Re: [IronPython] clr.AddRefernce* woes There were a couple of bugs w/ assembly loading in beta 3. As a work around you should be able to do: import System clr.AddReference(System.Reflection.Assembly.Load('System.Xml')) clr.AddReference(System.Reflection.Assembly.LoadFrom('System.Xml')) clr.AddReference(System.Reflection.Assembly.LoadWithPartialName('System.Xml' )) Obviously we'll have it fixed in beta 4. Do you want to help develop Dynamic languages on CLR?

I'm trying to load a .NET 2.0 compiled assembly. "PERWAPI.dll", I have a test.exe console c# program which does invoke methods and instantiate classes defined within that DLL. I'm also having problems with the tutorial "demo" using mapack.dll., I've provided a transcript below: ---------------------------------------- CUT HERE ---------------------------- >>> import clr >>> clr.AddReference("System.XML") - Crashed >>> import clr >>> clr.AddReferenceByPartialName("System.XML") - works >>> clr.AddReferenceByPartialName("Mapack") Traceback (most recent call last): File , line 0, in input##152 File , line 0, in AddReferenceByPartialName##81 RuntimeError: Could not add reference to assembly Mapack >>> clr.Path [] >>> clr.Path.append(System.Environment.CurrentDirectory) >>> clr.Path ['C:\\Development\\IronPython\\Tutorial'] >>> clr.AddReferenceByPartialName("Mapack") - Crashed ---------------------------------------- CUT HERE ---------------------------- Naturally the same happens for PERWAPI.dll (which I'm really interested in getting to work) and naturally, Both .DLLs (PERWAPI.DLL & MAPACK.DLL) are in the ' C:\Development\IronPython\Tutorial'' on my machine...
