eval function

[Guest]

Hi all,

Does C# have an Eval function like JScript does? I have a need to evaluate
some code on the fly...

TIA!

No, C# does not have such function. Do a quick search in this newsgroup,
this has been discussed at least 5 times here.

Check "Math Parser" for example of creating a general Eval yourself for your
utils lib.

Hi,
Welcome to MSDN Newsgroup!

As far as I known, C# doesn't provide this function. If we want to evaluate
some code, we can use following two ways to achieve this goal. You could
choose one of them as you like,
1. Invoke Eval Function using JScript.NET. You could refer to the following
article,
Title: An Eval Function for C# using JScript.NET (JavaScript)
URL: http://www.odetocode.com/Code/80.aspx

2. Implement Eval function from scratch using C#. I browse an article from
internet and hope it's helpful for you.
Title: Runtime C# Expression Evaluator
URL: http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/runtime_eval.asp

I hope the above information is useful for you. If there is any question,
