Hi,<br>I saw this somewhat old thread on an IronPython forum (Link: <a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythondotnet/2006-June/000504.html">http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythondotnet/2006-June/000504.html</a>, also shown below.) and I am trying to do exactly the same thing as the person who originally posed the question:
<br>I would like to run .py files from within a C# program, using pythonEngine. The .py files contain several python functions that I would like to be able to call.<br><br>I was wondering if the newer versions of IronPython have fixed this problem and if there is now a solution for what I'm trying to do?
<br><br>Also, is there somewhere that I might find documentation as to the functions/API for pythonEngine?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Dylan<br><br><br>-----------------------ORIGINAL THREAD-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<br><pre>Have you tried using the PythonEngine.RunString (not <br>RunSimpleString) method? <br><br>Still not as convenient as having a RunFile, but that <br>should do what you need for now.<br><br>-Brian<br><br><br>><i>
