[IronPython] How to dynamically define and call a function?

[Martin Maly]

There is an extensive documentation on the hosting APIs that comes with the distribution (Doc\IronPythonApiReference.chm)

As for the example that didn't work for you ... you had 2 Python engines and the "testing" module was created in one of them whereas "import testing" was executed in different engine (the one controlled by the Python console).

d'oh!  I knew there must have been a straightforward way.

I'm still curious as to how to use the IronPython.Hosting stuff though, as I
thinkultimately it might prove to be more what I'm really after.

thanks,
