[Tcl Java] solution to some problems with TclBlend/Tcl8.2
I had a bunch of problems recently which have finally been resolved with Mo's help. I'm using jdk1.2.2/tcl8.2.2/tclblend1.2.5 on Windows NT, and found that 'package require java' would work fine if typed into a console, but would crash wish if it was in a .tcl file which was double-clicked to run (path, classpath etc all correctly set). The eventual solution was to move tclblend.dll from /bin to /tclblend/lib This happened on a pretty pristine system which has only ever had one version of java, tcl and tclblend installed (new machine on monday...) Hope this helps anyone else who might see the same thing. Vince. The TclJava mailing list is sponsored by Scriptics Corporation.

I think jvm.dll is from the JDK 1.2 binary dist. It sounds like you downloaded the JDK 1.2 tclblend.dll, you need the tclblend.dll compiled for JDK 1.1. That misleading error message in Tcl's load command really needs to be fixed! later Mo > Quickview on tclblend.dll lists the following dll files under "Import Table": > tcl82.dll, user32.dll, jvm.dll, msvcrt.dll, kernel32.dll.

I double checked with a stock JDK 1.1.8 on windows 95, and it looks
like the file file called javai.dll in JDK 1.1.8. It looks like the
warning inside pkgIndex.tcl needs to be updated. Could you try
opening the tclblend.dll file you have with "quickview" under windows
by right clicking on the .dll in explorer and selecting quickview.
The list of .dll files it requires should be listed in the quickview
window. At this point, I am really stumped. Other folks have been able
to run the precompiled .dll so there must be something strange going
on with your box. I would suggest that your try building Tcl Blend
from the source release. Building from the source has always worked
for me.

We are using TclBlend 1.2.5 on NT with JDK 1.2.2 with no problems. In
fact just installed it on NT this morning and had it up and running in
matter of minutes.

Mo,
Thank you for your help. I added the extra debug line, and the
problem is
indeed that it is failing to find java.dll. In fact, I don't have a
java.dll
anywhere on my system (even though I have jdk1.1.8 from Sun installed).
I
looked on a colleague's machine, and he has java.dll only in his jdk1.2
directory - does this file only exist in java 1.2? It would be odd for
tclblend
to require java 1.2 file since I downloaded the version for 1.1.
Anyway, as you surmised before, I don't have VC++ on my PC, but I do
have a C
development environment on a Solaris machine, so I've now gone and built
tcl8.2.2 and tclBlend1.2.5 from the source there, and it works fine.
Thanks,
Dave

Mo,
Thank you for your help. I added the extra debug line, and the problem is
indeed that it is failing to find java.dll. In fact, I don't have a java.dll
anywhere on my system (even though I have jdk1.1.8 from Sun installed). I
looked on a colleague's machine, and he has java.dll only in his jdk1.2
directory - does this file only exist in java 1.2? It would be odd for tclblend
to require java 1.2 file since I downloaded the version for 1.1.
Anyway, as you surmised before, I don't have VC++ on my PC, but I do have a C
development environment on a Solaris machine, so I've now gone and built
tcl8.2.2 and tclBlend1.2.5 from the source there, and it works fine.
Thanks,
Dave

[Tcl Java] versioning of Jacl commands
What are the costs associated w/ call Extension.loadOnDemand() for the same class but with different command names. Any? Here's what I'm up against: I have literally hundreds of commands in my application. I'd like to rework some of them but must keep backward compatibility. I see two possibilities: 1) Rework the commands. At the same time, produce a set of stub classes matching the old ones that simply call the new class. 2) Write a bunch of Tcl procs that accomplish the same thing. In general though, does anyone have any clever ideas for versioning commands? --- Thomas McKay Project Leader Microcosm Technologies, Inc. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The TclJava mailing list is sponsored by Scriptics Corporation.
