calling ruby from a windows app?

[Egbert Teeselink]

Hey,

I was looking around for scripting languages that'd enable me to add
some sort of scripting to my application when i stumbled into ruby. it
seems quite an excellent scripting language, however i've not managed
to be able to reference it from the outside much - i may be looking in
the wrong places.

I guess what I'm looking for is some ruby.dll that has
RunScript("gak.rb"); and InvokeMethod("moo",args); and all that, and
also ExposeObject("texgen",mytexgen->objdef); and a callback function
or something like that. Does anything like this exist? Or any way to
fake this behaviour without getting all too hacky?

See README.EXT file.

The ruby documentation describes how to do this.
The PickAxe book (get version 2.0) also covers this.

Download the ruby source and take a look at ruby.h. This has all the
publicly accessible functions and defines for calling Ruby from C.

Someone wrote a Ruby to .NET bridge, which looks like it can evaluate
Ruby code from a .NET app. YOu have to look at their "EmbeddedSample"
project to see how to do it, though. Their examples only show how to
call .NET from Ruby.
