How do I include 3rd party Python modules (NLTK) into a C# application?

Question

 

Hello,

I have an embedded Python C# application that uses the NLTK.

How do I include NLTK into a C# application?

Thanks.

Answer 1

I would imagine you need something like IronPython to run the Python code as MSIL. Try http://www.ironpython.net/support/ if you need help in IronPython.

But how do I include the NTLK modules (in Python)?

Thanks.

Answer 3

You can't include Python code in a C# project. The C# compiler does not understand Python. If you want to see if you can include NTLK to a IronPython project, try the link mentioned above.
