[tcljava-user] Running TCL scripts on Java platform

[Sriram J <sri...@tc...>]

Hi ,

I haven't tried this package yet (
http://tcljava.sourceforge.net/docs/website/index.html). 
I am trying to understand the capabilities and limitations of Jacl and TCL 
Blend, for making up the architecture.

Problem description:
I have a huge volume of legacy TCL/ expect based test scripts. The new 
test platform is based on a Java based framework.
The test scripts are written in Java. The ambition is to run the legacy 
test scripts to the Java framework by either
1) Porting the TCL scripts to Java,
        - Either by manually
        - Or by intelligent parser 
2) Make a compatible layer, which would take the legacy scripts and run it 
on the Java framework. there by making minimal (or) Zero changes to the 
legacy scripts.
 
Question
Could the Jacl and TCL Blend could act as a abstraction layer for the 
legacy scripts, if I choose to run the legacy test scripts on a Java test 
platform, what are the limitation could I face later. 
 
Thanks and Regards
Sriram Jagadeesan
