[IronPython] IronPython & Silverlight

[Craig S. Perler 04]

Hello,

I'm having problems accessing .NET libraries from 
IronPython hosted within a Silverlight application and 
have hit a wall. If you have any advice, I'd be most 
appreciative!

To describe my setup... I'm first initializing the 
PlatformAdaptationLayer with the details described here 
[http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ironpython/silverlight/embeddi
ng_ironpython.shtml]. I'm not certain what exactly that 
does, but it seems clear that no amount of fiddling around 
in IronPython works without detailing the 
ScriptEnvironmentSetup. With that in place, I see a bit of 
progress: I can execute the script "def func():\r\n 
return 'in Func()'" and then retrieve the result by 
evaluating the script "func()". 

I've tried a variety of combinations to gain access to 
System.DateTime from the Python script, but they all end 
up with an error like the one below. Additionally, this 
error is also similar to the one I receive when attempting 
to call PythonEngine.ExecuteFile(string path), which I 
have thus far been unable to get to work.

Any thoughts?  Please let me know if you need more details 
to help me debug!

Thanks in advance,

-Craig
