[IronPython] Variable sharing between C# and iron python

[Dino Viehland]

There's two ways to do this: One is to expose a static (or even an instance) class to Python code which your C# code accesses, the other is to access the EngineModule and pull variables out that Python code has set.

The first can be done by:

PythonEngine pe = new PythonEngine();
EngineModule em = pe.CreateModule();

DynamicType dt = Ops.GetDynamicTypeFromType(typeof(MyType));
em.Globals["Foo"] = dt;

now Python code executed in this module can do Foo.Xyz = 3 and so on...  Or using an instance class:

em.Globals["Foo"] = new MyDataPasser();

The other way is to set/get from Globals directly:

em.Globals["SomeValue"] = 23;
pe.ExecuteFile("C:\\foo.py", em);
Console.WriteLine(em.Globals["SomeValue"]);

Subject: [IronPython] Variable sharing between C# and iron python

Hi All,

I am using C# code and iron python V1.1 version of dll's using Visual Studio. In this context, I would like to read the value of the variables manipulated/defined in iron python files in C# and vice versa.
Any example is highly appreciated.

Regards
