No worries, I didn’t read your comment as rude. I fully realize the
error
of my ways in not embracing Ruby earlier in my career. 
It’s just an interesting thing to keep in mind with projects like
IronRuby, that people come to it with different backgrounds. It will be
interesting to see what sort of orientation documents are produced for
those coming to IronRuby from a .NET (C#/VB.NET) background. I foresee
articles like these from the days when C# was young:
C++ -> C#: What You Need to Know to Move from C++ to C#

Re: [Ironruby-core] calling ruby scripts from C#
Apologies if my earlier answer was rude. I wasn’t trying to be rude, and
looking at it I realize it could be taken as such. I know I appreciate
hearing that people are using IronRuby on real projects, not just as a
novelty language J
Thanks,
JD

Indeed. We came to Ruby from C#, so it wasn’t immediately obvious to us.
Thanks!

Makes sense, that’s standard Ruby for you.

Agreed. We found if we changed the definition of class C, unless we did
something like ‘load’, it would continue to use the old definition from
the first load.

Re: [Ironruby-core] calling ruby scripts from C#
If the base class is defined in file “foo.rb†and used in file “bar.rbâ€
this should also work:
engine.ExecuteFile(“foo.rbâ€);
engine.ExecuteFile(“bar.rbâ€);
Example:
C:\Temp>type foo.rb
class C
end
C:\Temp>type bar.rb
class D < C
end
p D.ancestors
C:\Temp>rbd

In our application, we also found we found ‘load’ useful in some
circumstances to force reloading of script files, since ‘require’ will
not
reload files it knows it’s already loaded.

Re: [Ironruby-core] calling ruby scripts from C#
root
|_ lib
|_ great_class.rb
|_ test
|_ test_great_class.rb
let’s say I add root to my load path
then I can reach the files in lib with require ‘lib/great_class’
or in test_great_class.rb you can do
require File.dirname(FILE) + “/…/lib/great_class”
you are free to add the extension in case you’re using require.

Thanks! The require a file (containing the base) option works.
But adding the path to the file containing the base class does not. Here
C# reports an error that the file can not be found. Don’t what’s wrong
here, but for know the require a file option will do the trick.
