My RubyCLR bridge should let you do what you're looking for - the drop
that's out there in circulation now has a simple RSS reader built as a
Windows Forms 2.0 application. I've also built a non-trivial 3D Avalon (WPF=
)
app using an earlier version of the bridge, although I'm just revisiting
that stuff now.

The current drop is almost 3 weeks old - it's about due for a refresh :)  M=
y
private builds now have a ton of new features; off the top of my head there
is:

- support for interfaces
- a lot of really cool Reflection features to make prototyping .NET code in
irb *much* nicer
- a ton of perf and reliability work; 80% of the C++ part of the bridge was
re-written.
- much better support for a few data binding scenarios (such as data bindin=
g
against native Ruby arrays)
- support for generics (I don't resolve method overloads against generic
types correctly now - I'm punting that to the next release)
- proper support for array creation
