Runtime.Globals.SetVariable('C', ...) sets a global constant C, not a Ruby global variable $C.

Hello Jimmy-sann Thank you for your some advice about my code, and for giving me an information about the link to documentation of DLR-hosting. I understood your advices as below: 1. for creating the engine. If the program hosts the ONLY IronRuby, 'IronRuby.Ruby.CreateEngine()' is better than 'runtime.GetEngine("rb");'. If the program needs to host many dynamic languages, 'var engine = ScriptRuntime.CreateFromConfiguration().GetEngine("rb");' is better than 'IronRuby.Ruby.CreateEngine()'. 2. ScriptSource If the program evaluates same script and never execute same script, 'engine.Execute(string, ScriptScope)' is better than for creating the ScriptSource. Because, engine.Execute(string, ScriptScope) is simple code. If the program evaluates one script many times, for creating the ScriptSource is better than 'engine.Execute(string, ScriptScope)'. Because creating a ScriptSource compiles a ruby code ONLY once time and reduces . Of course, when creating a ScriptSource, I can change the mode for complie,execution. --------- Now, I have one more question about global variables. First, in my last mail, I used 'IronRuby.Ruby.GetExecutionContext(engine).DefineGlobalVariable' for defining global variable. Now I found the way to write 'runtime.Globals.SetVariable("xxx", 567);' to define global variable in the documentaion , but it seems NOT work. Is this a bug? Thank you. B.R.
