Could you use mark the types as internal and public depending on whether you wanted to prevent or allow access from IronPython? IronPython code will not be able to access types or methods marked as internal in your C# code.

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 _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
