CSharp Compiler / Interpretor

[Azeem M. Suleman]

Hello,

I need to use Csharp compiler and an interpretor. In my application user
will use the application and application will write CSharp code on backend.
But now i don't need to reinvent the wheel, just need to know how i can give
user an option to build the project which will compile and make an
executable file.

thanks.

Re: CSharp Compiler / Interpretor

Yeah i looked on msdn, is their any implementation sample for it. Like for
basic idea i found this article:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/Q304/6/55.asp&NoWebContent=1

But it didn't compile windows form and other controls.

Thanks.

Re: CSharp Compiler / Interpretor

Hi,

You'll have to specify parameters.Refe rencedAssemblie s to let compiler knows
which assemblies you reference in your code.

Did you reference System.Windows. Forms.dll?

Re: CSharp Compiler / Interpretor

Where to reference that dll, as i'm just using this code. Any sample...Here
is the concept code that i saw from the url:

private void button1_Click(o bject sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
CSharpCodeProvi der codeProvider = new CSharpCodeProvi der();
ICodeCompiler icc = codeProvider.Cr eateCompiler();
string Output = "Output.exe ";
Button ButtonObject = (Button) sender;

textBox2.Text = "";
System.CodeDom. Compiler.Compil erParameters parameters = new
CompilerParamet ers();
//Make sure we generate an EXE, not a DLL
parameters.Gene rateExecutable = true;
parameters.Outp utAssembly = Output;
CompilerResults results =
icc.CompileAsse mblyFromSource( parameters,text Box1.Text);

if (results.Errors .Count > 0)
{
textBox2.ForeCo lor = Color.Red;
foreach(Compile rError CompErr in results.Errors)
{
textBox2.Text = textBox2.Text +
"Line number " + CompErr.Line +
", Error Number: " + CompErr.ErrorNu mber +
", '" + CompErr.ErrorTe xt + ";" +
Environment.New Line + Environment.New Line;
}
}
else
{
//Successful Compile
textBox2.ForeCo lor = Color.Blue;
textBox2.Text = "Success!";
//If we clicked run then launch our EXE
if (ButtonObject.T ext == "Run") Process.Start(O utput);
}

Re: CSharp Compiler / Interpretor

I found the solution.

I just added:

parameters.Refe rencedAssemblie s.Add("System.d ll");

parameters.Refe rencedAssemblie s.Add("System.D rawing.dll");

parameters.Refe rencedAssemblie s.Add"System.Wi ndows.Forms.dll ");

It works fine. But it always loads from command prompt. How to handle that.
I just need to pass C# code to compiler and generate executable in such a
way that no process can be seen.

Thanks.

parameters.Comp ilerOptions = "/target:winexe";

Not tested, but should work.

Re: CSharp Compiler / Interpretor

What to do for multiple files. Like if i have 3 class files at different
places and they all are using objects of each others....what will be the
parameter.....

Thanks.
