For ctypes you should use the documentation that is part of the Python documentation. For PInvoke the references will be mainly for C#.

Does anyone have examples of using PInvoke with clrtype and IronPython 2.6?

Is there a reference somewhere for PInvoke or ctypes in IP?

I am trying to call user32.dll into IronPython how do I do this? Do I
use clr.AddReference, that doesn't seem to do it.

clr.AddReference only works for .NET assemblies. user32.dll is not a
.NET assembly. To use it you will either need PInvoke or ctypes that
comes with IronPython 2.6.

PInvoke relies on .NET attributes. It used to be the case that you
couldn't use these directly with IronPython but needed a simple C#
wrapper. The following article shows how to call into user32.dll using a
C# wrapper:

Alternatively you can try clrtype.py that comes with IronPython 2.6.

All the best,
