How fine grain do you need change notifications? you could just store the
pre-execute value of a, and after each python Execute you could check that
the pre-a is the same as a.

Subject: [IronPython] OnVarChanged
I realize this is likely woefully naïve but I thought I'd ask anyhow.
I have a very specific case in my project where I would really like to know
when a variable inside IronPython changes. Basically when I do this:
pythonEngine.Execute("a = 3"); // Or something more complex that ends up
changing global var 'a'
I am looking for a way to be notified when 'a' has been assigned to a new
value. This seems to be pretty simple for the Set/GetGlobal() calls but what
about code that is inside of the Execute() block? Where could I look at
adding some code myself such that I can add these hooks? I have dug through
some of the code to find a place to add a hook but I couldn't seem to find
anything clear cut.
Again, I realize this is pretty simplistic and also painfully slow for any
moderate scripting but I have a very specific case where I would like some
widgets in C# to respond to when a variable has changed. (The watchwindow in
visual studio would be a good parallel of what I'm needing to do -- ie. show
a new value has been set for a particular value you are watching).
Thanks!
John
