[Ironpython-users] Ironpython cannot load .Net DLL

[Petri Alapiessa]

Hi,
My company uses .NET and has libraries to application interface. I would like to use python to invoke application functions. A prerequisite is that I can load .NET DLL that interacts with that application.
But I am stuck here, Ironpython cannot load one of the dependent DLL's or it's dependency.

My python script references Components.dll, which in turn references some other .NET DLL's, including "Blaa.Blaa.Testing.Automation.dll".
That is not found, see log below

Here is my Ironpython script:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
import clr
import sys
sys.path.append('D:\\tfs\\sandbox\\calculatordemo\\calculatordemo\\_Dependencies')

from exceptions import SystemError, Exception
import System
import System.Reflection

clr.AddReference('Components')

from System.Reflection import ReflectionTypeLoadException

try:
  from Components import Calculator
  calculator = Calculator()
  calculator.Start()
  print Calculator.Ready()
except  System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException as e2:
  print e2.LoaderExceptions[0]
except Exception  as e2:
  print('Exception occurred: ' + e2.message)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Output:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Blaa.Blaa.Testing.Automation, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=bd317adc1d7d9856' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All dependencies should be in _Dependencies-folder. Similar script created as C# project works. IL Spy does not show any dependencies that should not be available.

Thanks for any help in helping to solve this! I did not yet find any help after several days of studies.


Best Wishes,
