How can one interface with Google Sketchup, via the API, from a Windows App?

I was looking at something written in C#/VB.NET but its seems like the only available Google Sketchup API is for Ruby.

Any ideas on how to use that Ruby API from .NET? Is Ruby only serverside or can it be processed locally, offline?

I think that the Ruby API is just for script plugins, not for interfacing from a standalone app. Maybe you could add a Google Sketchup ruby plugin that interfaces with your app?

There is a C++ API in addition to the Ruby Script system. Find it here:
