Command Reference for Rigid Dynamics Systems 2024 R2

IronPython references

Last update: 17.07.2025

Rigid Dynamics uses an object-based approach, so it is useful to have experience with object oriented programming and the Python language when writing commands for the solver. Ansys Workbench scripting is based on IronPython, which is well integrated with the rest of the .NET Framework (on Windows) and Mono CLR (on Linux). This makes all related libraries easily available to Python programmers while maintaining compatibility with the Python language. For more information on IronPython, see <http: ironpython.net>.

IronPython is compatible with existing Python scripts, but not all C-based Python library modules are available under IronPython. Refer to the IronPython website for more information. For more information on Python, including a standard language reference, see <http: www.python.org></http:>. </http:>
