Hi all,
I'm working on embedding IronPython in a C# application and would like to have a single, global module where I expose my objects and run scripts, and have multiple views into that state. For example, I want to have one (or more) IronPython console views that provide an interactive prompt that the user can type in and execute code. If I enter a function/variable in one of the consoles, then it is also available in the others. (ie, I enter "x=1" in console A and in console B I can say "print x" and see "1" output.) I also want to execute much larger, non-interactive scripts that a user can write and, again, this state is shared across all my IronPython views. So, am I just thinking about this wrong? How are people embedding IronPython in their apps? It seems strange (and inefficient) to have to create a new PythonEngine and add all the references and expose globals every time I want to execute script. Is there a way to share some of this state? Can this be done using EngineModules? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks. Chris.
