Shiny New Code

Ruby IronRuby

Does anyone know when is the source code available on
http://dynamicsilverlight.net/ going to be committed to the RubyForge
SVN
repo?

Also, it looks like the DLR hosting API has changed. For example, the
example code on the IronRuby Wiki (
http://ironruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?ExecutingIronRubyFromCSharp)
no
longer works. Is there any public documentation on the updated DLR API?

Thanks!

The DLR hosting APIs should now closely match the hosting API spec which
is available here:

http://compilerlab.members.winisp.net/dlr-spec-hosting.pdf

There may be small tweaks here and there but they shouldn’t be changing
much in the future either.

Soon … :slight_smile: I tried pushing out before we left, and something’s mucked
up in the sync script. I’ll need to spend some time investigating before
I can give you a better ETA.

Thanks,

Does IronRuby support .NET custom attributes? Is this even possible on
the DLR? I recall that this was a problem with IronPython, but I wasn’t
sure if it also affects DLR-based languages like IronRuby and IronPython
v2.0…

Just updated that wiki page with a working demo I had laying around…
wonder why I hadn’t before… ah well thanks for pointing it out!

IronRuby doesn’t support custom attributes. It currently doesn’t support
compilation to static .NET types at all, so there is nothing the
attributes could be applied on. We will look at this issue in future.
