[IronPython] how to generate multiple concurrent scriptignengines?

[surangika ranathunga]

I applied the suggested patch and have been testing it for quite a few days. The exception did not occur ever since. So I think I can assume that the problem is no longer there. Thanks a lot for all your timely help

Hi,  You can re-read the thread at http://lists.ironpython.com/pipermail/users-ironpython.com/.  The fastest possibility is:- Fetch the IronPython source.- Patch PythonContext.GetEqualSite yourself according to the description in the thread.- Use your own compiled version.

Betreff: Re: [IronPython] how to generate multiple concurrent scriptignengines?  Hi,Sorry I missed the posts on this thread. This is the code that caused me the problem (I posted this in the first post of the thread)So according to your mails, I take that this is due to a bug in the ironpython code. Is there a way I can have some alternative work-out, something that I can do through my code? (i'm in kind of a hury to finish the project :S ) ScriptEngine engine = Python.CreateEngine();ScriptRuntime runtime = engine.Runtime;ScriptScope scope = runtime.CreateScope();ops = engine.Operations;try{ScriptSource source = engine.CreateScriptSourceFromFile("ironpython.py");source.Execute(scope);string class_param = rule;object[] parameters = new object[1];parameters[0] = class_param;object klass = scope.GetVariable("model_checker");object instance = ops.Invoke(klass, parameters);method = ops.GetMember(instance, "check_model");}catch (Exception
 e){Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());}

share the ScriptEngine & Runtime between threads.

What is the exception that you are getting? If it's a GUI program,
remember that UI elements can only be manipulated from the main
thread.
