The project actually consists of -two distinct packages, called Tcl Blend and Jacl. It is important to -understand what each package provides and in what situations one might choose -to use Jacl or Tcl Blend. - -Tcl Blend is a Tcl extension that makes use of JNI to facilitate communication -between a Java interpreter and a Tcl interpreter. Tcl Blend is typically used -to load a Java interpreter into an existing Tcl process, so that functionality -implemented in Java can be accessed via Tcl. One can also load Tcl Blend and -Tcl into a Java process, which is a great way to add scripting functionality -to an existing Java application. Because Tcl Blend is a normal Tcl extension, -one can use it with other popular Tcl extensions like Tk, Expect, and Itcl. - -Jacl is a self-contained implementation of a Tcl interpreter, written entirely -in Java. Jacl also includes features that facilitate communication between a -Java interpreter and a Tcl interpreter. Jacl is typically used to incorporate -scripting functionality into an existing Java application. For users who want -to avoid adding any native code to their Java applications, Jacl is the ideal -solution. - -Tcl Blend and Jacl define both a Tcl API and a Java API that make it easy to -call Java code from Tcl or call Tcl code from Java. For example, one could -allocate a Java object in a Tcl script and interactively invoke Java methods -on the object. It is also easy to use the supplied API to evaluate a Tcl -procedure from a Java method or implement Tcl procudures in Java. The flexible -API and wealth of implementation options provided by the Tcl/Java project make -integrating Tcl and Java easy. - - - tcljava - - -- cgit v1.2.3
