Thanks for your reply. Does the additional code for te DLR interfaces live inside the MVC framework?
RouteTable.Routes.LoadFromRuby(); <--- This creates a runtime + engine and executes the code (routes.rb) and adds it back to the C# collection. I understand how this works. Looking a bit more at the sample, RubyControllerFactory is part of the MVC framework. This will also creates a runtime\engine for the language and be able to pass execution to HomeController.rb similar to how RubyRouteLoader.cs works. Does this mean there will be a PythonControllerFactory? Why isn't there just a DLRControllerFactory as the actual hosting interface is the same? Once CTP 4 is out, I will be able to find out for myself, but if you could say if I was on the right line that would be good :) Thanks Ben On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 1:23 AM, Curt Hagenlocher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes, there's additional C# code involved which uses the DLR hosting > interfaces. > > For the sample that was shown at TechEd, code in Global.asax.cs executed > "routes.rb".
