Hi,

Does anybody know if it is possible for Tcl to use a .NET object in
any way, shape or form if on a windows server?

Thanks,

Yes, depending on how the .NET object is exposed.

Options include:
Web Services for Tcl
TCOM
and some work done by Joe Mistachkin

Joe sent me the following information in an email:

If the .NET object(s) is/are exposed via COM, he may want to use
either tcom or "classic" TclBridge. However, if the objects are
"pure" .NET objects that do not expose themselves via COM, he can
use the Tcl integration facilities of Eagle, see:

TclWrapper.cs: http://eagle.to/cgi-bin/fossil/artifact/56dfb4ded9
TclBridge.cs: http://eagle.to/cgi-bin/fossil/artifact/98b21ae26a
TclThread.cs: http://eagle.to/cgi-bin/fossil/artifact/7ff728d3b0

These features were the subject of my Tcl'2009 paper, which is
available online at:
