MakeTuple has been moved into PythonOps as PythonOps.MakeTuple.  The reason for 
that change is that we now want the public surface area of the .NET Python 
types to match the public surface area Python types.

File is more of a problem...  Unfortunately files do need to be bound to a 
context (for multi-runtime support).  If there's enough demand for it we could 
provide a PythonEngine class which is compatible w/ 1.x and we could expose the 
file creation via that.  Until then probably the only way to do it right now is 
to call __builtin__.file through Python code (to which you can pass in a 
stream).  The ObjectOperations class should make that fairly easy (you can 
convert file to a delegate and then call it).

CodeContext isn't actually internal but it's also not available to you via the 
hosting APIs.  Basically the DLR APIs are split into hosting APIs and language 
APIs.  The hosting APIs provide a pretty interface as well as a remoting model 
and the language APIs provide a ton of functionality specific to language 
implementers.

Subject: [IronPython] 2.0B1 Hosting: Creating Python Types

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to create an instance of a Python type
(i.e. tuple and file) using the hosting interface (from C#). In older
versions there was PythonTuple.MakeTuple, for example, but that seems
to have disappeared. Now PythonTuple and PythonFile both require a
CodeContext, which I'm pretty sure is internal.

Is there a nice, easy way in 2.0B1 to create a tuple and convert a
Stream to a file-like object?

Thanks,
Jeff
