[IronPython] Visual studio "edit and continue"

No, the Visual Studio IronPython integration does not support edit and continue, unfortunately.
It is certainly a valid scenario that is, as you point out, extremely valuable especially for dynamic languages. Hopefully, we'll be able to address this in the future.

Is there any "edit and continue" functionality for the VS IronPython
integration?  I don't know if I have the IP integration installed
correctly, but I couldn't get it to work.  I think this would be the
killer feature for IronPython since theoretically code completion could
work with the dynamic type information.  Plus writing code while executing
it is a huge advantage of dynamic languages.

Overall though I'm impressed with the platform.  The work to allow both
pure python development and python/.net development (eg import clr) is
appreciated.  It makes me feel confident that the project is heading in a
direction I can be happy with over the longer term.

Thanks,
Chris
