Forgive me if this has been asked before. I already went through the archive
and could not find any answer to this.
Basically, the idea is to be able to define a class in C#.
Then in Python, make a reference to the C# library and instantiate an object
based on this class.
Then as requested by C# through IronPython, this object reference is then
passed back to be used/manipulated in C#.
The error/issue I'm having is the casting of the object (passed from Python)
to the C# class. (last part of the code below)
Funny thing is that when I put a breakpoint on Visual Studio, I'm able to
cast these objects in the Watch Window, but only when the code actually runs
it fails with exception as below:
Microsoft.Scripting.ArgumentTypeException: Expected
DLRProto1_Extensions.Test03.CastTestObject, got
DLRProto1_Extensions.Test03.CastTestObject
Unable to cast object of type
'DLRProto1_Extensions.Test03.CastTestObject' to type
'DLRProto1_Extensions.Test03.CastTestObject'.
I won't include the initialization of the engine and scope as they have been
taken care by the base class.
// C# library
public class CastTestObject
{
private int cnt;
private int limit;
public CastTestObject()
{
cnt = 0;
limit = 1000;
}
public void IncrementCount()
{
cnt++;
}
}
# Python script
import clr
clr.AddReferenceToFile("DLRProto1_Extensions.dll")
from DLRProto1_Extensions.Test03 import CastTestObject
cto = CastTestObject()
print cto
def returnTestObject():
cto2 = CastTestObject()
return cto2
// C# code manipulation below
string script = ReadScript("Scenarios\\test03.py");
CompileAndExecute(script);
CastTestObject ctoObject;
// does not work, but works in Watch Window in Debug Mode
ctoObject = ScrScope.GetVariable<CastTestObject>("cto");
// cast does not work, but works in Watch Window in Debug Mode
object cObject = ScrEngine.Execute("returnTestObject()", ScrScope);
ctoObject = (CastTestObject) cObject; //fails here with the exception above
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Samuel
