[IronPython] Evaluating python from within the context of a class

[Jonathan Slenders]

The following works. But I've no idea how to pass params to the member
function. (Anyone: How can you call a function with parameters unpacked from
a tuple??)

But why do you actually want to do this? If the class instance is not
important, just make a static method of this one.

class RT(object):
        def Evaluate(self, code):
                def generateContext():
                        def dropself(f):
                                def g(*p):
                                        f(self)
                                return g
                        context = {}
                        for f in RT.__dict__:
                                context[f] = dropself(RT.__dict__[f])
                        return context

                eval(code, generateContext())

        def test(self):
                print 'RT test'

RT().Evaluate('test()')
