hello,
I believe I got it working; I just wrote get/set methods for the variables, wihch I can eval. This allows me to control what gets changed via eval, as well. I have one more question; is there a way to do something like an array of function pointers in c++, or the equiv of a delegate in .net, so I can use hooks? The functions will have something like the following prototype:
void hook(void* data)
That's my c implamentation, but it would be similar.

On another note, thanks for the help, both jamal and brandon. Haven't heard from you in forever, hows things going?


Thanks,

You can use the eval function to evaluate an expression, or in your
example, the exec statement to execute a statement (Python draws a
distinction between an expression and a statement).  Note that use of
such techniques can risk security if there is a way for arbitrary code
to be injected from an external source.

Subject: [program-l] quick python question

Hello list,
I'm working on a mud that uses python as it's scripting language, and had a quick question.
Is it possible to evaluate python code?
Like, from within the mud I'd like to do something like:
eval (find_char("azar")).level=100
and have azar's level be set to 100.


Thanks,
