If you want to execute a python program from c-sharp you can just use
System.Diagnostics.Process to execute python.exe and you don't need
python for .net.
Python for .net is more appropriate for if you want to execute a python
function or create an instance of a python object and then run methods
and access attributes from your C# program.
The example you linked to is OK, except that he modified the
Python.Runtime.Dll which is not necessary.
If you had a Hello.py with a function called hello
Like this:
def hello():
return 'hello'
You could do this in C#:
PythonEngine.Initialize();
PyObject helloModule = PythonEngine.ImportModule("Hello");
String fromPython = helloModule.InvokeMethod("hello", new
PyTuple()).ToString();
PythonEngine.Shutdown();
// now fromPython = "hello"
If your function takes an argument:
def returnArg(arg):
return arg
PythonEngine.Initialize();
PyObject helloModule = PythonEngine.ImportModule("Hello");
String fromPython = helloModule.InvokeMethod("returnArg", new
PyObject[1] {new PyString("Test")}).ToString();
PythonEngine.Shutdown();
// now fromPython = "test"
