Scripting inside a Python application

I'd like to include Python scripting in one of my applications, that is written in Python itself.

My application must be able to call external Python functions (written by the user) as callbacks . There must be some control on code execution; for example, if the user provided code with syntax errors, the application must signal that.

What is the best way to do this?
Thanks.

edit: question was unclear. I need a mechanism similar to events of VBA, where there is a "declarations" section (where you define global variables) and events, with scripted code, that fire at specific points.

Use __import__ to import the files provided by the user. This function will return a module. Use that to call the functions from the imported file.

Use try..except both on __import__ and on the actual call to catch errors.

Example:

m = None
try:
    m = __import__("external_module")
except:
    # invalid module - show error
if m:
    try:
        m.user_defined_func()
    except:
        # some error - display it

If you'd like the user to interactively enter commands, I can highly recommend the code module, part of the standard library. The InteractiveConsole and InteractiveInterpreter objects allow for easy entry and evaluation of user input, and errors are handled very nicely, with tracebacks available to help the user get it right.

Just make sure to catch SystemExit!

... except SystemExit, e:

... 
My custom console banner!
>>> shared_var
'Set in main console'
>>> shared_var = "Set in sub-console"
>>> sys.exit()
Got SystemExit!
>>> shared_var
'Set in main console'
