Is there a way to call C# method for string?

[sea0920]

The following code fails at str.Trim(). I guess it's because str is converted from C# String to JsString and JsString only has trim() method.

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        var engine = new Engine();
        engine.SetValue("str", " abc ");
        var res = engine.Evaluate("str.Trim()");
        Console.WriteLine(res);
    }
}

I want to expose all the C# String methods. Is there an easy way to do that?

You can always add functions to the prototype. Sounds odd that you want to do C# scripting with JS engine though.

It was possible in Jint v1 and people in my company want backwards compatibility for existing scripts.
