Syntax

[ToolboxBitmap(typeof(ScriptRun), "Images.ScriptRun.Python.Icon.bmp")]
public class ScriptRun : Component, IComponent, IDisposable, IScriptRun, IScriptRunBase

Remarks

ScriptRun is a non-visual component that allows executing IronPython scripts and script projects. It allows referencing third-party assemblies and registering application-defined objects to be accessible in the scripts.

The most important properties and methods of the ScriptRun are:

The ScriptHost property provides properties and methods of the underlying scripting engine.

The ScriptSource property contains the source of the script to execute.

The GlobalItems property contains a collection of application objects accessible to the scripts.

The Run() method executes the script.

The RunFunction method executes the specified script function.

Examples

Here is how to run IronPython script using ScriptRun from the C# code:

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var scriptRun = new Alternet.Scripter.IronPython.ScriptRun();
        scriptRun.ScriptSource.FromScriptFile(@"c:\myscript.py");
        scriptRun.Run();
    }
}

Here is how to run IronPython script using ScriptRun from the Visual Basic code:

Partial Public Class Form1
    Inherits Form

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim scriptRun = New Alternet.Scripter.IronPython.ScriptRun()
        scriptRun.ScriptSource.FromScriptFile("c:\myscript.py")
        scriptRun.Run()
    End Sub
End Class

Constructors

ScriptRun()	Initializes a new instance of the `ScriptRun` class with default settings.

CodeEnvironment
Compiled	Gets boolean value indicating that script has been compiled and ready to be executed.
Executed	Gets boolean value indicating that script has been compiled and ready to be executed.
GlobalItems	Gets or sets a script items collection attached to this runner.
LoadUserTypeDefinitions	Gets or sets whether users type definitions should be loaded.
ProjectDirectory	Gets or sets root project directory.
ScriptHost	Returns object that implements `IScriptHost` interface for this runner.
ScriptSource	Gets source of the script to execute.
TypeDefinitionsSearchPaths	Gets or sets list of search directories to look for type definitions.

Methods
