[IronPython] Type.GetType returns None

[Michael Foord]

Hello all,

Why does "Type.GetType(string)" return None from IronPython ?

I need to use it with names like "Console", "int" and "string" - 
fetching the .NET type objects. I guess this is because of the reflected 
types ? Do I have an alternative that will work ? (other than stub C#).

All the best,

Michael Foord
