That's probably the best way to do it right now - we need to provide a service for Python specific information (exposed via ScriptEngine.GetService) or provide a PythonEngine wrapper which enables Python specific behavior. At this point that might be a feature that waits for post 2.0 though.

Hey guys - I'm looking at running Resolver One on IP2B3, and it took a long time to work out how to pass an argument in to a script to run - it seemed like I should be able to set the ScriptEngine.Options.Arguments, but that resulted in an empty sys.argv. In the end I dug around in the source and found the following, which works: List argList = new List(); argList.extend(args); PythonContext context = (PythonContext)HostingHelpers.GetLanguageContext(engine); context.SystemState.Dict[SymbolTable.StringToId("argv")] = argList; There are comments on HostingHelper not really being intended for hosts - is there a better/less likely to go away method of doing this?
