Use of IronPython in Monad, Part 2

MSH IronPython

We can call IronPython in Monad.
See MSH Memo - Use of IronPython in Monad
Additionally, we can use the function of IronPython script in Monad.

Use the function of IronPython script in Monad

1.
Load IronPython.dll.
Create ScriptEngine Object of IronPython by new-object Cmdlet.

ex)
[void] [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFrom("C:\IronPython\IronPython.dll")
$pe = new-object ironpython.hosting.pythonengine

2.
Call Execute method, Arg is the string that contains functions.
The following example is that $code contains "printStr" function.

ex)
$code=@"
def printStr(str):
print str
"@

$pe.Execute($code)

3.
Get the reference of function by GetVariable method.

ex)
$pPrintStr = $pe.GetVariable("printStr")

4.
Exectute function by Call method.

ex)
$pPrintStr.Call("Hello Monad!")

Sample Script
[void] [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFrom("C:\IronPython\IronPython.dll")
$pe = new-object ironpython.hosting.pythonengine

$code=@"
def add(x, y):
    return x + y
"@

$pe.Execute($code)

$pAdd = $pe.GetVariable("add")

$pAdd.Call(5,20)
Sample Result
MSH C:\> [void] [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFrom("C:\IronPython\IronPython.dll")
MSH C:\>
MSH C:\> $pe = new-object ironpython.hosting.pythonengine
MSH C:\>
MSH C:\> $code=@"
>> def add(x, y):
>>     return x + y
>> "@
>>
MSH C:\> $pe.Execute($code)
MSH C:\>
MSH C:\> $pAdd = $pe.GetVariable("add")
MSH C:\>
MSH C:\> $pAdd.Call(5,20)
