[IronPython] CPython reflector (work-in-progress)

[Dino Viehland]

To get a better stack trace I would suggest you run w/ -X:ExceptionDetail command line option which will give you the raw exception info thrown by the CLR.  By default we exclude all of the IronPython, mscorlib, etc... frames and just give you the frames that you presumably would be interested in (and that would be the same as what CPython displays).  But -X:ExceptionDetail will flip that off.

This is a very cool idea, except I'm running into an issue. I've made a modification to reflect.txt, I changed the DLL name from "libpython2.3.so" to "python24.dll".

(creflect.py is your reflect.txt attachment with my modification, ctypes.py is
http://sparcs.kaist.ac.kr/~tinuviel/fepy/lib/ctypes.py)

 >>> import creflect
Traceback (most recent call last):

StandardError: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

(Bit of a bizarrely structured stack trace!)
