I'm sorry to subject the rest of the mailing list to my ignorance... Is there perhaps a 'how to experiment with TclJava when you know nothing' type document out there? Anyways - what do you mean "Just open the tcljava.jar file"? Do you mean just type in open "tcljava.jar" ? Let me tell you what I am trying to do. I'm building extensions for various programmers. One of them came along and said "Larry, I'd like to try out this TclJava thing I've read about". "No problem" says I. I mean, I've built dozens of Tcl extensions before. I just configure, make all check install and off the programmer goes. So far, after, what, several years, I've finally semi-successfully gotten this one to build <blush>. Now I just want to 'test' to see if things work. The programmer, not knowing where to start with TclJava, reports the start up problem I mentioned a bit later. I tried to do the package require as well and got the same error. I was trying to use the demos to 'prove' to myself that things work. Unfortunately, to date, I've failed at that too. Nothing like a few good failures to cause doubt in one's universe... > Ahh, but you did not use the jtclsh startup script did you :) Nope - didn't know anything about them, so I didn't know to try them. -- Larry W.
