Are you trying to get rid of the "foo.Bar" or do you want the user to be typing something like "MyObjectModel.Bar"? Or are you just wanting the user to type "Bar"? You can just pass the instance of the class in and the user can dot through it and call methods on it - as far as they're concerned there's not much of a difference between static vs. instance - it's either dotting through the class name or the instance name.
If you really want the user to just type "Bar" the good news is that you'll be able to do it in a future version. You'll just need to subclass DynamicObject and put a dictionary in it for storing additional attributes. Then you can add your methods to it and pass it as the storage for a scope. You can also override TryGetMember and then do the lazy lookup of attributes as well. Unfortunately it doesn't work right now in 2.6 due to a bug in IronPython (you get an exception saying __doc__ is readonly). It is fixed in the 2.7 branch though and I can look at backporting it to 2.6.x. This is the way we really want things to work going forward though - scopes are just dynamic objects. That will enable you to have thinks like static properties or fields which languages can bind to very tightly and get really high performance global variable lookups. > -----Original Message----- > From: users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com [mailto:users- > boun...@lists.ironpython.com] On Behalf Of Ross Hammermeister > Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 9:27 AM > To: Discussion of IronPython > Subject: Re: [IronPython] Modules in hosted enviroment > > This is almost what I want but I to pass and instance of a class(no static > methods) and have python treat it as if it were static method.
