.Net LuaInterface Hook system / Events

Question

Wondering if it where posible to create a hooking system in .Net with LuaInterface This system would be like Garry's Mod

Hook.Add("HookName", "CustomName", Function()
    print("Called every time HookName is called) 
end

I am dead in my tracks with trying to figure out how this would work...

Thanks

Quite easy to do, had this same problem myself, you just need this setup

Dim luascript As New Lua()
luascript.RegisterFunction("Print", Me, Me.GetType().GetMethod("Print"))
luascript.DoString("Print('Hello World')")

Which will invoke a method called Print, referenced by GetMethod. The Lua and .NET method names do not have to be the same.

Public Sub Print(text)
    YourAwesomeListBox.Add(text)
End Sub
