Using ProtoGeometry outside Dynamo

DesignScript
1

Hi i am trying to use Designscript outside Dynamo in a python script.
basically the code runs like:
import clr
clr.AddReference('ProtoGeometry')
from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry import *
…
dynamoSolid1 = wallSolid1.ToProtoType()
dynamoSolid2 = wallSolid2.ToProtoType()
intersectionCurves = dynamoSolid1.Intersect(dynamoSolid2)

the exception raised for the .ToProtoType() conversion is:
"The object reference was not set to an object instance"
anyone already solved that problem?

i tried to implement following code (stripped).
it shall run in python shell (outside dynamo)
funny now is, that when i run the code with Dynamo in background everything runs fine.
alone - an exception is thrown.
libraries loaded are according to the long time existing migration guide.any suggestions?

import clr

clr.AddReference('RevitAPI') 
clr.AddReference('RevitAPIUI') 
clr.AddReference('RevitNodes')

import Revit
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import FilteredElementCollector, BuiltInCategory, IntersectionResultArray, \
		SetComparisonResult, Options, ViewDetailLevel

clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.GeometryConversion)

doc = __revit__.ActiveUIDocument.Document

def collectWalls():
	curview = doc.ActiveView
	cl = FilteredElementCollector(doc, curview.Id)
	stdwalls = cl.OfCategory( BuiltInCategory.OST_Walls ).WhereElementIsNotElementType().ToElements()
	return(stdwalls)

walls = collectWalls()
options = Options()
options.DetailLevel= ViewDetailLevel.Fine

for wall in walls:
	wallSolid = list(wall.get_Geometry(options))[0]
	print wallSolid # for debug shall show Solids
	dynamoSolid = wallSolid.ToProtoType()`

the code results in an exception:

Hi do you known if that is possible Form pythonshell?
Thanks
