Embedding a scripting language in C# ?
March 18, 2003 07:52 AM
Anyone done that before? Is it possible to embed LUA or Python or any other high level scripting language into my engine?
I am guessing it might even be easier than other languages due to the reflection api?

The easiest you can do is to use the built-in scripting support that comes with the framework. This currently allows you to use either VB.NET or JScript.NET as the scripting language.
Unfortunately, the classes involved are somewhat poorly documented, so I had to go through a lot of examples before I got it working.
My code here is fairly heavily documented, and could serve as a starting point(the next thing to do would of course be to read the documentation that is available); http://sourcepost.sytes.net/sourceview.aspx?source_id=4417
