can you typecast a .NET object in IronPython?

Question

I\'m interfacing with a .NET API in IronPython. The API is returning an object of the wrong type (some kind of generic object). I suspect that the problem is not showing up

Answer 1

I had a similar problem on a project a few months ago. This was my fix:

import clr

clr.GetPythonType(x)

x can be a .NET type or a type that is in a dll file that you have imported using clr.

I am not a C# programmer, but I have been told by C# programmer colleagues that this code in C# would be:

typeof(x)

Hope this helps
