hi,
I confess to being a newbie at this sort of thing in Python or IronPython,
so I'm hoping that there is a simple answer to the subject question.
I started off trying to use standard "compile()" function and "exec"
statement, but was unable to make it work, although I'm sure there must be a
way. Is there? How?
So then I tried the following instead:
import IronPython
from IronPython import Hosting
s = "def myAdd(x,y):\n return x+y\n"
engine = Hosting.PythonEngine()
mod = engine.CreateModule()
engine.Execute(s,mod)
My understanding is that the above should have created a function named
"myAdd" inside the newly minted "mod" module, but if it did so I was unable
to find any evidence of it. How would I access/use it?
So then I modified the above to name the module and import it (even though
this doesn't really meet my ultimate requirements):
import IronPython
from IronPython import Hosting
s = "def myAdd(x,y):\n return x+y\n"
engine = Hosting.PythonEngine()
mod = engine.CreateModule("testing",True)
engine.Execute(s,mod)
import testing
but alas this throws an "ImportError: No module named testing". Why?
yrs in puzzlement,
gary
