Calling Ruby from within .net

Cory Foy posted a very in depth post explaining how to call Ruby from within .net. This post is much more then just code, it really digs deep into how IronRuby is working under the covers, very informative! Cory describes a bit on how the RubyEngine is working under the covers, and how the AST (abstract syntax tree) plays into the execution. Much like Cory, though, I was unaware that the ?? operator has been added to .net 3.0, and that’s great. (c#)?? == (ruby)||= Get it? :)

On a related note, Phil Haack also updated the wiki with a sample on executing Ruby in .net here.
