I think I simplified my example a little too far. I'm trying to display a Bitmap from bytes generated in Python code.
bytes = array.array('c') # tried 'B' also # generate bitmap bytes ... bitmap = Bitmap(width, height, PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb) bmData = bitmap.LockBits(Rectangle(0, 0, bitmap.Width, bitmap.Height), ImageLockMode.ReadWrite, PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb) total_bytes = (bmData.Stride) * bmData.Height Marshal.Copy(bytes, 0, bmData.Scan0, total_bytes); bitmap.UnlockBits(bmData) The IronPython exception I'm getting is: TypeError: expected IntPtr, got array Casting the bytes array to IntPtr changed the error into: TypeError: expected int, got array I'm using IronPython 2.6 (2.6.10920.0) on .NET 2.0.50727.4927 Any idea?
