[IronPython] ironpython xna problem

[Dino Viehland]

Is this on a 64-bit machine?  IronPython is a neutral EXE so it'll run at 64-bit on a 64-bit machine and 32-bit on a 32-bit machine.  It looks like XNA is a 32-bit only assembly: http://www.start64.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1932&Itemid=114

If this is the problem then the answer is that unfortunately we don't ship a 32-bit ipy.exe.  You could write a simple 32-bit wrapper that does a AppDomain.ExecuteAssembly on ipy.exe though.

Hello Gigs_,

That error definitely means that IronPython isn't finding the assemblies.

What happens if you copy the XNA assemblies into the same directory as
the IronPython interpreter and execute the following into the
interactive interpreter:


import clr

clr.AddReference('Microsoft.Xna.Framework')
clr.AddReference('Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game')

from Microsoft.Xna.Framework import *
from Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics import *
from Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Content import *
