After I wrote the “Intro to IronRuby/DLR Scripting in C# Silverlight 4 Application” post, I came across an interesting series on embedding DLR scripts in XAML with WPF. This is an interesting series, although the code doesn’t run in Silverlight, due to the fact that Silverlight is only a subset of W...

I thought I’d share what I’m learning about adding IronRuby scripting to Silverlight 4 applications. I’m also focusing on C# as the host language, but the .NET object and methods used will be the same from VB.NET.

This article demonstrates how to embed DLR scripts in XAML using a custom MarkupExtension. The scripting language can be any language supported by the DLR, such as Python or Ruby.

In this post I take advantage of some of the powerful Ruby built-in abilities to create a class that records C# statements and playbacks them on an arbitrary ob...

Blog post about requirements to using IronRuby at existing .NET project.

The purpose of this post is to run through a process which will ultimately allow you to write Ruby based specifications for your .NET code. Why would you want to do this? The intended purpose for this practice is to gain the most benefit when doing BDD. Trying to do BDD in C# results in a lot of syn...

Application extensibility comes in various ways and names. It seems, though, that one kind of extensibility was left to the very few – application macros. This kind is now easier to achieve than ever before, using the new Dynamic Language Runtime.

I've grouped together some resources and blogs for all of you out there who are willing to start working with dynamic languages that are built on top of the DLR. Enjoy!
