Hi @piac , thanks for your amazing work! I’m currently compiling a script that uses some additional .NET .dlls referenced via clr.AddReference(). This works fine as long as the referenced dlls are kept directly in the Libraries directory, however if they are put into an additional folder, they are…

Hi @ondrej-vesely please start new topics for new conversations. You are entitled! As far as I understand (this is an IronPython topic, not a Rhino topic, really, per se), sys.path is not used for clr.AddReference, because that is for a .Net assembly, not for a Python package/module. However, whe…

import clr from System import Reflection clr.AddReference("GeoAPI.dll") clr.AddReference("ProjNet.dll") import GeoAPI, ProjNet print Reflection.Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().Location returns: C:\Program Files\Rhino 6\Plug-ins\IronPython\Microsoft.Dynamic.dll My goal is to have the .dlls loaded, …

[image] ondrej-vesely: Are there any obvious disadvantages to that aproach? Yes, nobody knowing that they are there for a reason.

You need to try after it’s compiled. When it’s in the evaluation mode, for sure it won’t work…

That’s what I meant by compiled code.

It looks like enquiring where the compiled assembly is located (from Python) is a little more involved than what I first thought: [marce] Referencing hosting assembly in (Iron)Python script fails c#, ironpython asked by marce on 01:47PM - 28 Sep 12 …

You can use this: a_component_id = System.Guid('YOUR-COMPONENT-ID-4fde-acc6-4624ed345388') Grasshopper.Instances.ComponentServer.EmitObjectProxy(a_component_id).Location this needs to happen after the component has loaded. So make sure the clr code happens only at request (not when GH loads). To s…
