thanks for the response
You can do:
Tcl Thread A -> package require java -> start JVM ...
Tcl Thread B -> send request to Tcl thread A for Java work using
message passing on the event queue of A
Tcl Thread C -> send request to Tcl thread A for Java work ...
...
I don't think this will work because the Java-side code can have one thread
block while waiting for another thread's work to complete. For example:
Tcl Thread C above will not be able to run because Tcl Thread B has tied up the single connection to the JVM, and Tcl Thread B needs C to complete. I.e., the system would deadlock.
Any other thoughts appreciated. At this point I'm about to give up on using TclBlend and rework my software to use a different approach that avoids the whole tclblend/tclthreading problem
