It is currently an all-or-nothing situation. As a work around you could create your own module (import imp.new_module('modulename')) and then you could add the namespaces onto the new module, then publish the module in sys.modules:
import imp import sys mod = imp.new_module('test') mod.abc = 'xyz' sys.modules['test'] = mod import test print test.abc You can do this w/o giving IronPython the reference to your assembly. Just load the assembly, and from Python you can access the namespaces/types directly off the assembly object. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stanislas Pinte Sent: Tuesday, August 15, 2006 12:34 AM To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: [IronPython] expose some namespaces of own application Hello, We are using IP as a scripting engine, embedded in one of our products. I would like to be able to expose a subset of the namespaces present in my application assembly (MyApp.exe) to the scripting engine...but hide the rest: i.e. when a user does an "from a.b.c import Bar", if a.b.c is "hidden", then it fails: >>> from a.b.c import Bar Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ImportError: No module named a.b.c >>> whereas if a.b.pub has been "exposed" to the scripting engine, then the user can import it. Is this currently possible? I have the impression that it is an all-or-nothing situation...and I would like to avoid having to split my classes in several assemblies. Thanks for all input, Kind regards, Stan. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Stanislas Pinte e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ERTMS Solutions http://www.ertmssolutions.com Rue de l'Autonomie, 1 Tel: + 322 - 522.06.63 1070 Bruxelles Fax: + 322 - 522.09.30 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Skype (http://www.skype.com) id: stanpinte ----------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
