Hello,
I am facing some very serious issue. It is so trivial and surprising
that i am wondering if this blocking behavior is intentional, and if yes
why and how to by-pass it if possible:
--> clear File, clearglobal File
--> function test(), jimport java.io.File, disp(File), endfunction
--> test() // OK
class java.io.File
--> File
Undefined variable: File // So the File class is local. It is not
returned to the caller, from the Scilab point of view.
--> File = 1;
--> test()
at line 1 of function test
jimport: An error occurred: A variable with this name is already existing
!!!!
So jimport refuses to create a local Scilab mlist (class) on the reason
that there is a Scilab variable with the same name in the */calling/*
environment !
Since it's impossible to ensure that no /File/ variable is defined by
some process in the (nested) callers up to the console level,/*jimport
is definitely fragile*/.
Is this a bug, and is there any work-around?
Thanks
Samuel
