cs_prescript does not work

[eugene-vv]

Hello Oleg, I unzipped manually cs-script.win.4.4.0.0 version. And for test purpose (pre/post scripts execution) created example main2.cs: //css_pre pre2($this); using System; public class Main2 { public static void Main(string[] args) { Console.WriteLine("Main2 script"); } } And pre2.cs: using System; public class Pre2 { public static void Main(string[] args) { Console.WriteLine("Pre2"); } } both in one folder. running cscs main2.cs returns OverflowException: Am I doing something wrong?

It is a bug. let me have a look at it

Until the problem is fixed you can use this workaround.

• If you want to run some routine prior the script execution you can use a more advanced version of //css_pre - precompilation. I regret now that I did not remove the obsolete //css_pre but have no choice ane will need to fix it. Precompilation is achieved via //css_pc <precompiler_script>.

pcs.cs file

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class Sample_Precompiler // precompiler class name must end with 'Precompiler'
{
    public static bool Compile(ref string scriptCode, string scriptFile, bool isPrimaryScript, Hashtable context)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(scriptFile);
        return false;
    }
}

script.cs file

//css_pc pc.cs
using System;

public class script
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Main script");
    }
}

• though if you simply want to have multiple routines combined then you can simply import one script into another with //css_include <script file>.

Thanks for quick answer. I will implement workaround in my code.

Fixed in v4.4.2.0
