Tomas, is this new, or changed? I couldn't seem to call a method using
what you showed.
Because "do_stuff" is a function that returns a list (in my case) I couldn't do:
var execute = scope.GetVariable<Func<string>>(“do_stuff”);
But instead, had to do something like this:
return engine.Execute<TOutput>("do_stuff", scope);
In any case, it worked. Just wondering if it won't allow for some
reason because I am expecting a complex type back (IList<string>)
Thanks, -Kevin
