hope it will do the job (maybe its not the cleanest way, but it works for me sometimes. Depending on the ending of the lists you should wrap or not the shift component.
Good luck…

all you need is this:
import rhinoscriptsyntax as rsa = rs.BooleanDifference(b1, b2, False)
Where b1 and b2 are your input breps. But I do not know why it is not working correctly.For some strange reason the RhinoCommon version works with no problem (check the attached files):
import Rhinoimport utility as rhutil# converting brep guids into Brep objectsbrepL1 = []brepL2 = []for brep1 in b1: brep1_object = rhutil.coercebrep(brep1, True) brepL1.append(brep1_object)for brep2 in b2: breps2_object = rhutil.coercebrep(brep2, True) brepL2.append(breps2_object)tolerance = 0.1a = Rhino.Geometry.Brep.CreateBooleanDifference(brepL1, brepL2, tolerance)
Before opening attached .gh and .3dm files, copy the "utility.py" file into your folder:"C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\McNeel\Rhinoceros\5.0\Plug-ins\IronPython\settings\lib" - if you are using WinXP
"C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Rhinoceros\5.0\Plug-ins\IronPython\settings\lib" or if you are using Win7
I think <user name> might also be replaced with just: "Administrator".…
%.
I us Revit, Maya, Microstation/GC SDK often and find rhinoCommon the most straight forward and easy to use.
reflector + Object Browser in VS is the best way to learn…
