[IronPython] Converting C# to Python ... the lock() keyword?

[Sandy Walsh]

Thanks for the prompt answer Dino.

The lock is defined in a C# library and I have to access it ... I assume 
Monitor and threading.Lock() are different implementations 
(specifically, you can't mix and match)?

I can live with the Monitor for now I think.

Thanks again!
