How many of you were/are trying to do the same that I am? That is, try to integrate DMDScript with D.

What I have done is modified slightly Walter's testscript so it becomes a sort of interactive shell (it really isn't, but it takes its input from console instead from a file). Anyway, I could create a DMDScript variable from a D one. What I did was prepend to the user input code of my own, just like this:

buffer = "var myValue = " ~ format(myValue) ~ ";" ~ userInput;

So the user can use "myValue", and she can even modify it. The problem is that past that point, I want to recover in D the value of "myValue" and see if it changed. Can it be done? How? (extra points if there's a way to notify from DMDScript to D the moment "myValue" changes ;) ).

The way to do that is create your own object (by deriving from DObject).
Then, override the Put() functions to notify when a property gets a new
value.

Thanks. I managed to get it working: http://dblinux.sis.epn.edu.ec/~csantand/dmdscript.html
Maybe I'll upload the executables tomorrow (if someone requests them).
