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.

Subject: Re: [Ironruby-core] hosting: howto get the nice ruby backtrace on 
exception thrown from ruby?

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?

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?
