An alternate plan would be to run your script in another app domain. Then you can just unload the app domain and all shared state will be cleared. The hosting APIs make this pretty easy to do as well.

So to unhook the delegate from the event, you need to do the same thing from IronPython that you would have done from C#: Button1.Click -= hello. I believe that Runtime.Shutdown() will call any "atexit" methods you defined from Python, so you can use this to perform cleanup.

I have added some code to a winform buttons Click event with code like this: def hello(s, e): MessageBox.Show('Clicked ' + s.Name) Button1.Click += hello; This works fine, but the problem is that if I modify the script code at run-time and call: source.Engine.Runtime.Shutdown(); source = engine.CreateScriptSourceFromString(....); .. source.Execute(..) I suddenly have 2 scripts running at the same time, and the messagebox is displayed twice. How should I go about properly stopping/unloading the first instance of the script so only the latest script will be executed? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! -Tommy -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Stop-script-execution-unload-script-tp21542133p21542133.html Sent from the IronPython mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com<mailto:Users@lists.ironpython.com> http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
