Creating a Python class extending a C# interface with generic return type causes a System.TypeLoadException: VTable setup of type #2511

Description

Environment

  • Pythonnet version: 3.0.4
  • Python version: 3.10.12
  • Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  • .NET Runtime: Mono 6.12.0.200 (tarball)

Details

  • Describe what you were trying to get done.

I've stumbled upon an exception when creating a Type in Python from a C# interface that includes a generic return type (example code below)

namespace Robin
{
    public interface IRobin
    {
        T? Find<T>() where T : IRobin;
    }
}

Converted to a DLL using: csc /t:library IRobin.cs

Then bug validated with:

import sys
import os
import pythonnet

print(__file__)
sys.path.append(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)))

import clr

clr.AddReference("IRobin")
from Robin import IRobin

print(pythonnet.get_runtime_info())

class A(IRobin):
    __namespace__ = "mock"
  • If there was a crash, please include the traceback here.
TypeError: Failed to create Python type for mock.A

I modified the Pythonnet.dll to console error the C# exception and I get:

Python.Runtime.InternalPythonnetException: Failed to create Python type for mock.A ---> System.TypeLoadException: VTable setup of type mock.A failed

With a bit more console out I found the issue is when we try to get the members of the Python class: https://github.com/pythonnet/pythonnet/blob/v3.0.4/src/runtime/ClassManager.cs#L344
