Ironpython 2.6.1 on Silverlight 4

Question

I am trying to integrate IronPython into a Silverlight application, but cannot do this. After downloading the binaries every time I try to add DLLs as links in my VS2010 solution, all I get is an error that they are not compiled for Silverlight. I even tried to download the source distribution, but I can’t install the various projects that make up the build solution against Silverlight (the only choice I have in different versions of the .net framework). Since the IronPython website explicitly states Silverlight compatibility, why doesn't it work? Is there an easier way to get scripting capabilities in my Silverlight application?

Answer 1

You need to use binaries from a folder IronPython-2.6.1\Silverlight\binin Silverlight.
