[IronPython] Questions about compiled .py files - their stub exe and dlls

[Guy Rozendorn]

I'm using the IronPython 2.0, final version, and the corresponding pyc.py
sample


>> and they both reside in C:\Temp\myProg.exe, along with IronPython.dll and
>> IronPythonModules.dll

>
> It looks like you are using the Pyc.py sample with IronPython 1. Can you
> update to IronPython 2 and try again.
