This does not apply to modules in pure Python, of course, which are mostly importable (the restrictions being mainly due to platform differences).
The team at Resolver Systems has built an interesting experimental mechanism for embedding CPython in the IronPython environment and having the two communicate. This has been demonstrated to allow some uses of CPython extension modules in IronPython, but there are no guarantees. However, the functionality you seek may well be available through .NET features which are easily accessed from IronPython, in which case that would be the way to go. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +1 571 484 6266 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC http://www.holdenweb.com/ _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
