Calling C # code from python using pythonnet

Below is the C # code. How to call GenericMethod () inside NonGenericClass from Python using pythonnet?

namespace CSharpTestCode
{
    public interface Person
    {
    }

    public class Employee : Person
    {
    }

    public class TempGenericClass<T>
    {
    }

    public class NonGenericClass
    {
        public static T GenericMethod<T>(TempGenericClass<T> tempGeneric) where T : class, Person
        {
            return null;
        }
    }
}

      

Python code I tried:

import clr
clr.AddReference(r'\Documents\visual studio 2015\Projects\SamplePythonApp\CSharpTestCode\bin\Debug\CSharpTestCode.dll')
from CSharpTestCode import *

genericMethod = NonGenericClass.GenericMethod(TempGenericClass[Employee]())

      

The error I received was:

Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentException: GenericArguments[0], 'CSharpTestCode.TempGenericClass`1[CSharpTestCode.Employee]', on 'T GenericMethod[T](CSharpTestCode.TempGenericClass`1[T])' violates the constraint of type 'T'. ---> System.Security.VerificationException: Method CSharpTestCode.NonGenericClass.GenericMethod: type argument 'CSharpTestCode.TempGenericClass`1[CSharpTestCode.Employee]' violates the constraint of type parameter 'T'.

I must admit that pythonnet should not reset the CPython interpreter even on this bad example of a generic call with invalid arguments for a method.

Here's how to make common calls correctly with pythonnet, notice how the wrong types are missed:



In [3]: NonGenericClass.GenericMethod[Person](TempGenericClass[Person]())


In [4]: NonGenericClass.GenericMethod[Employee](TempGenericClass[Employee]())


In [5]: NonGenericClass.GenericMethod[Person](TempGenericClass[Employee]())
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-5-d13751f7586f> in <module>()
----> 1 NonGenericClass.GenericMethod[Person](TempGenericClass[Employee]())

TypeError: No method matches given arguments


In [6]: NonGenericClass.GenericMethod[Employee](TempGenericClass[Person]())
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-6-04c3c0db6c6b> in <module>()
----> 1 NonGenericClass.GenericMethod[Employee](TempGenericClass[Person]())

TypeError: No method matches given arguments
