Adding C#
 
Can someone give me a rundown of how to get C# added to the scripting languages for CMUD?

Thanks in advance!

It should just be a matter of having the C# libraries installed on your system.
Then it should appear in the languages dropdown list of a given setting.

C# is not a scripting language, it's a full programming language. It can't be embedded in other environments, only to create standalone executable binaries.

I make extensive use of C# as an scripting extension. Once you understand that CMUD is both a server and a client you can take advantage of this feature. The way I communicate between zscript with C# is via COM using json to pass data back and forth.
The place to start is here.
Here you will find the front end of a C# application that communicates with CMUD.

Here is the script to connect:
Code:

$connStr = "sqlServer.Agent"
;;
#VAR comsrv %comcreate( $connStr)

The variable comsrv now can be used in calls to the C# application: #call @comsrv.<methodname>(parameters)... Where methodname is any method in your application which is declared public.
