Yep, and I'm happy to move back to the old behavior - being consistent w/ ourselves and broken seems better than being inconsistent w/ ourselves and broken :)

With IronPython 1 users could put assemblies their spreadsheet systems depended on in the same directory as the spreadsheet and it 'just worked', which isn't the case with the IronPython 2 port. Even if it isn't always guaranteed to be correct, the old behaviour was much better for us. :-) Thanks Michael > -----Original Message----- > From: users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com > [mailto:users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com] On Behalf Of Tom Wright > Sent: Friday, January 30, 2009 10:34 AM > To: Discussion of IronPython > Subject: [IronPython] Two engines and clr.AddReference don't work together. > > Hi, > > Having two engines in the same AppDomain causes interesting behaviour > when trying trying to add references. > > Only the sys.path of the first engine that was created seems to be taken > into account when calling clr.AddReference, the second sys.path is ignored. > > See > http://www.codeplex.com/IronPython/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=20921 > for more details and a repro. > > Tom Wright > Resolver Systems Ltd. > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > Users@lists.ironpython.com > http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com > > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > Users@lists.ironpython.com > http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com > -- http://www.ironpythoninaction.com/ http://www.voidspace.org.uk/blog _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
