[IronPython] Access functions from other modules in an embedded environment

[Danny Fernandez]

Hi Curt,

 In my C# test app just simple demo app for me to learn more. I have a
textbox that I enter the function name I want to execute with my entry point
using "moduleA.py". If I type myFunA and enter I execute this pretty
straightforward I think. If I type moduleB.myFunB in the textbox and
execute. I am not sure how best to access functions that were imported.

If I use the ScriptRuntime.UseFile

ScriptScope scope = engine.RunTime.UseFile("ModuleA");

What would be the best way to get access to myFunB defined in ModuleB?

If this doesn't make sense it's all good but its weird how things make sense
in your own head.

Thanks

Danny
