Import C# dll's dotted name files in IronPython problems

Question

I've been trying to import two C # .dll using IronPython. One is called m1.sdk.dll the other is called m1.sdk.something.dll. But I got error. The error message says it could not find a type in m1.sdk.something.dll.

But they are loaded through clr.AddReferenceToFileAndPath () and import of IronPython. I see them carried through clr.References

Is there a way to load these .dll's so despite the name dotted IronPython see how the same module?

import clr

clr.AddReferenceToFileAndPath("c:\\path_to_file_\\m1.sdk.dll")
clr.AddReferenceToFileAndPath("c:\\path_to_file_\\m1.sdk.something.dll")

import m1.sdk
import m1.sdk.something     # The error occurs here

*Traceback (most recent call last):

File "", line 1, in

ImportError: No module named something*

enter image description here

I think the python understand that they are the same module but are not, it is to attach a module in the other run-time? — David Ximenes, Mar 20 '16 at 04:20
Have you verified that both `m1.sdk.dll` and `m1.sdk.something.dll` actually contains objects in the namespaces `m1.sdk` and `m1.sdk.something`? You're importing namespaces, not assemblies. There is no requirement that an assembly needs to define namespaces that match the assembly file name. — Jeff Mercado, Mar 22 '16 at 15:18
I use Win7-64bit, Ironpython console 32bits and .dll's are 32bits too. — David Ximenes, Mar 29 '16 at 03:48
I was looking at the manifest. An assembly needs another with log4net name. I do not have it. How did you and Simon said. — David Ximenes, Mar 29 '16 at 05:42

The problem you are facing is most likely not related to the name or similarity of the two referenced assemblies. No module named something will occur if there are no public/visible types found withing the namespace m1.sdk.something.
