[Tcl Java] RE: [Tcl Java] Re: [Tcl Java] Multiple Tcl.lang.Interp in a single JVM

Thanks.  I'll use Jacl for now and switch to TclBlend when it's ready.  If
there is anything I can do to help, let me know.


 The current Tcl Blend code does not work with multiple Tcl threads.
 There is a plan in place to remedy this situation, but we
 will not be able to post the details until the end of the week.

  If the paragraph quoted above still applies, then it looks like this
  approach won't work.  What if I switched to the Jacl intead of TclBlend?
  Could I use Jacl to create mulitple Tcl interpretters on
 separate threads
  inside a single JVM?

 You can always prototype the system in Jacl and move to Tcl Blend
 when the thread work is finished. Jacl does threads a lot better
 than Tcl Blend, at least for now. You should not have to rewrite
 anything, both Jacl and Tcl Blend support the same Tcl/Java API.

The best thing you can do as a "new user" is to keep a detailed log
of what problems you run into and what insights you have. For example,
if you just can't figure out how to put and event into the event
queue, make a note of that. Jot down what docs you looked at
and why you are still confused. When you figure the problem out,
log that and make sure you write down what info helped you figure
out what to do. This is really helpful because later you can look
at the log and notice "gee, if there were better docs in that
function or an example of X, I would not have been confused".
Getting things into an "easy to understand" state is really
hard, so we could really use you help on that.

Don't be afraid to download the CVS tree and rewrite any
documentation you find confusing.
