Microsoft IronPython

IronPython is a codename of the early pre-alpha release of the new Implementation Running on .NET of Python language.
IronPython was specially made as a codename for an alpha release of the Python programming language for the .NET platform.

It supports an interactive interpreter with fully dynamic compilation. It is well integrated with the rest of the framework and makes all .NET libraries easily available to Python programmers.

Requirements:

  • You must install the Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package (you can download it from here) prior to installing IronPython.
  • Note: If you have already installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, you do not need to install the .NET Framework separately. Visual Studio 2005 includes the .NET Framework.


    What's New in This Release:

  • This release ships with a MSI installer that installs IronPython along with the Python Standard Library. It is now dual-licensed with IronPython shipping under MS-PL and the python standard library shipping under the Python Software Foundation license. This means that existing python libraries are readily available after installation and makes for a better out-of-the-box experience of using existing CPython libraries. A zip file containing the binaries is still available as before.
  • Static compilation of python files is now supported again and the pyc.py sample has been updated to use the newer version.
  • IDispatch-based cominterop is now the default mode as opposed to generating interop assemblies for interacting with COM components. This is a change that might break some existing scripts. One can switch back to the old behavior by setting the environment variable COREDLR_PreferComInteropAssembly. Read this blog for more details on this feature.
  • Apart from the Silverlight binaries and Chiron, the templates and tools to create a barebones app are included as well. This is in the SilverlightScript folder.
  • Performance degrades that were reported in Beta 3 have been fixed.
  • As mentioned previously in the mailing list, IronPython now requires .NET 2.0 SP1. This is so that the DLR can make use of some fixes that are present in .NET 2.0 SP1
