[IronPython] can't override LayoutEngine property

[Jonathan Amsterdam]

I'm trying to overrride the LayoutEngine property of Control so I can
implement my own layout engine. I find that this doesn't work in IP.
Accessing the LayoutEngine property in IP works fine, but it doesn't
work from C#.

 

//////////////////// C# code:

 

   public class MyCSharpClass

    {

        public static LayoutEngine getLayoutEngine(Panel p)

        {

            return p.LayoutEngine;

        }

    }

 

//////////////////// Python code:

 

class MyLayoutEngine(LayoutEngine):

    def Layout(self, parent, eventArgs):

        pass

    

mle = MyLayoutEngine()

 

class MyPanel(Panel):

    LayoutEngine = property(lambda self: mle)

 

p = MyPanel()

print "from Python:", p.LayoutEngine

print "from C#:", MyCSharpClass.getLayoutEngine(p)

 

//////////////////// output:

from Python: <MyLayoutEngine object at 0x000000000000002B>

from C#: System.Windows.Forms.Layout.DefaultLayout
