You can use ExceptionService: var engine = Ruby.CreateEngine(); try { engine.Execute(@" def foo goo end
def goo raise 'hello' end foo "); } catch (Exception e) { var exceptionService = engine.GetService<ExceptionOperations>(); string message, typeName; exceptionService.GetExceptionMessage(e, out message, out typeName); Console.WriteLine(message); Console.WriteLine(typeName); Console.WriteLine(exceptionService.FormatException(e)); } The current implementation is not ideal. If you're missing some features on the service let us know. We might consider adding them.

I've given it some thought. I would like to avoid wrapping the code in "begin - rescue" and instead catch the exception in c#. Then just send the ruby methods "message" and "backtrace" to the Ruby-exception-object from C#. How would that be done? Any other hints? -- Henon On Tue, Feb 17, 2009 at 11:36 PM, Meinrad Recheis <meinrad.rech...@gmail.com<mailto:meinrad.rech...@gmail.com>> wrote: hello, I am now currently using this ugly hack to get a reasonable (let's say user friendly) exception backtrace from an error in executed code: public object Execute(string code, ScriptScope scope) { code = @"begin _=( "+code+@" ) rescue Exception self.__message__=$!.message.to_clr_string self.__backtrace__ = $!.backtrace throw end"; object result = null; try { LogManager.GetLogger("Ruby").Debug("\r\n" + code); result = m_engine.Execute(code, scope); } catch (Exception e) { var backtrace = scope.GetVariable<RubyArray>("__backtrace__"); string msg = scope.GetVariable<string>("__message__") +"\r\n" + string.Join("\r\n", backtrace.Select(s => s.ToString()).ToArray()); LogManager.GetLogger("Ruby").Error(msg); } return result; } Even though it seems to work well I am absolutely not satisfied with it. Is there a better way to do this? -- henon
