IronPython Sample: Pyc

This sample shows developers how to create .NET executables directly out of IronPython scripts. The readme.htm in the download (download page: IronPython-1.0-Samples-Pyc.zip) will get you started.

IronPython’s Hosting APIs can be used to compile Python scripts into DLLs, console executables, or Windows executables. The pyc.py script included in this tutorial leverages these hosting APIs and can be used to compile other Python scripts. It provides a variety of flags such as the ability to specify the target platform of the .NET assembly (e.g., x64).

While the assemblies produced by the IronPython Hosting APIs are true .NET assemblies, the dynamic nature of the Python language makes it difficult to use these from other .NET languages. In short, this means that attempting to import Python types into other .NET languages such as C# is not recommended.
