Environment

Pythonnet version: 3.0.3, 3.1.0
Python version: 3.09
Operating System: Win11
.NET Runtime: 4.8

Details

Describe what you were trying to get done.

I am trying to use pythonnet package in a VSIX Visual Studio extension.
The Experimental VS Instance initializes pythonnet fine, however deploying an extension causes this crash.
I suspect there may be some threading issues, but am not sure what to look for.

What commands did you run to trigger this issue? If you can provide a
Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example
this will help us understand the issue.

try
{
    Runtime.PythonDLL = pythonFile.FullName;
    PythonEngine.PythonHome = pythonFile.DirectoryName!;
    OutputWindowHelper.LogInfo("PythonEngine", "Initializing Python engine.");
    PythonEngine.Initialize(); // crash here
    PythonEngine.BeginAllowThreads();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    OutputWindowHelper.LogError(ex);
}

If there was a crash, please include the traceback here.

Why you close my issue?

Here's your fix:

internal static bool ShouldBindEvent(EventInfo ei)
        {
            var mb = ei.GetAddMethod(true);
            if (mb == null)
            {
                return false;
            }
            return ShouldBindMethod(mb);
        }

Check your nulls, thank me later.

Hello ,

I have the same issue, I am trying to use pythonnet package in a VSIX Visual Studio extension.

I am going to apply this fix above made by @cpgames and see if the problem persists.

Do you intend to release this fix in a future version of pythonnet ?

Regards,
