Embedding IronScheme in a C# app

I'm trying to add a plugin architecture to my C# app. I've chosen IronScheme as the language, and also because it's built on the DLR, which should make it easier to embed.

On the Codeplex Wiki, they have the following example. I changed it slightly:

public class PluggerInner
{
    IScriptEngine scheme;

    public PluggerInner()
    {
        InitScheme();
    }

    pr开发者_运维问答ivate void InitScheme()
    {
        var domMgr = ScriptDomainManager.CurrentManager;
        var schemePrv = new IronSchemeLanguageProvider(domMgr);

        scheme = schemePrv.GetEngine();
    }

    public void RunSchemePlugin(string fileName)
    {
        scheme.ExecuteFile(fileName);
    }

    public void RunPlugins()
    {
        foreach (var fl in new DirectoryInfo("../../plugins").GetFiles())
        {
            if (fl.Extension == ".ss")
            {
                RunSchemePlugin(fl.FullName);
            }
        }
    }
}

(This is executed basically as new PluggerInner().RunPlugins())

It finds my example .ss file in the directory (yes, I know I shouldn't use ../..), but throws a massive error on this line:

scheme.ExecuteFile(fileName);

The exception I get is:

  InnerException: 

My example Scheme code:

(define (test) (+ 1 1))

I have no idea what the exception is actually talking about, as it has no InnerException.

I dont think I implemented ExecuteFile correctly.

The easiest is just to grab hold of the load procedure.

Also the extension methods, make life easier.

Example

using IronScheme; // for extension methods
...
Callable load = "load".Eval<Callable>();
...
load.Call("myfile.ss");

I have updated the exception handling to give better error messages (I hope!).
