如何在IronPython中使用IPython

Question

What is the procedure to get IPython to use IronPython as it's Python interpreter?

I know there were previously some issues: What is required to use ipython in ironpython?

But now that these issues should be fixed, how do i actually go about this?

The install doesn't detect IronPython as a version of the Python interpreter, not that I thought it would. But I'm wondering how to do this.

I'd (ideally) like the ability to run both the CPython and IronPython versions of IPython on the same machine.

Answer 1

It now works as of IronPython 2.7.3 Alpha 1!

Answer 2

The IPython script that installs on my system in /usr/bin/ipython is only two lines of code to invoke the interpreter:

from IPython import start_ipython
start_ipython()

So run that under IronPython and see how it works.

But as of February 2011, it looks like there were still problems: http://groups.google.com/group/ironpy/browse_thread/thread/b90273c618e38763?pli=1

EDIT : It works now, see their instructions .
