Hi, Does anyone know how I could create an Eclipse plug-in for TclBlend? I would want this plug-in to contain any required native shared libraries so that I could send this plug-in to anyone and they could use it without having to build and install Tcl on their system first. Thanks, Greg |

You could build Tcl and Tcl Blend and zip up the install tree but the trouble is that Tcl Blend depends on runtime env vars to find the JDK that it is linked to. At runtime, it needs to find jvm.dll and that means the PATH has to be searched. If you knew the JVM location or the PATH that jvm dlls were found on, then you might be able to do it. The trick will be getting all the env vars setup correctly when the JVM process starts. The process under Unix is the same except that you set LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of PATH (for Win32). You would have a much easier time setting up a Jacl plugin since all that is needed is to add tcljava.jar and jacl.jar to the CLASSPATH. cheers Mo DeJong --__--__-- Message: 3 Date: Mon, 22 Aug 2005 15:28:34 -0400 From: Gregory Pierce <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:gp...@ls..."><gp...@ls...></a> Organization: LSI Loigic Corp.

I need to use TclBlend because I have pre-existing Tcl code that uses Itcl and some other Tcl packages. I'm also guessing that TclBlend would be faster since it uses JNI. In order to run Eclipse the user needs to have JRE installed on their system. Is this enough information to get TclBlend to work? Currently, I'm able to set to env variables setenv TCL_LIBRARY /a/b/c/lib/tcl8.4 where: /a/b/c/lib contains libtcl8.4.so and setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /a/b/c/lib where: /a/b/c/lib contains libtclblend.so However, I'm not sure how to set these environment variables within an Eclipse plug-in.

Hi Patrick,
I probably haven't been clear in what my application is doing. What I am
writing is an Eclipse (Rich Client Platform) RCP application.
This application will be writing in Eclipse Java and it will have a Tcl
command shell. This command shell will be written using the Eclipse
SWT StyleText widget. This command shell will call TclBlend's Java->Tcl
classes. For example:
Interp interp = new Interp();
interp.eval("puts hello");
...
The reason I don't want to use Jacl to provide a Tcl interface to my
Java application is that I need to load Itcl because I have existing
Tcl code that needs to run in this command shell which depends on Itcl.
So far, I've been able to build a tcl.lang Eclipse plug-in, however, I'm
working on a way for it to find the init.tcl file which I plan to
distribute with my RCP application. BTW, I should note that I built
TclBlend by statically linking in Tcl 8.4.11 using the .a file.
This eliminates the need for my RCP application to locate and load the
libtcl8.4.so file.
Usually, there's always a way to do something. I'm well on my way to
finding it. I was just hoping that someone on this user group
might have some information that would help.
Thanks,
Greg Pierce

A bloke from CISCO (bsc...@ci...) posted a message on comp.lang.tcl on 01/05/2005 soliciting interest in an Eclipse Tcl plug-in. See link. May be of some use.

Really hard to do. You could build Tcl and Tcl Blend and zip up the install tree but the trouble is that Tcl Blend depends on runtime env vars to find the JDK that it is linked to. At runtime, it needs to find jvm.dll and that means the PATH has to be searched. If you knew the JVM location or the PATH that jvm dlls were found on, then you might be able to do it. The trick will be getting all the env vars setup correctly when the JVM process starts. The process under Unix is the same except that you set LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of PATH (for Win32). You would have a much easier time setting up a Jacl plugin since all that is needed is to add tcljava.jar and jacl.jar to the CLASSPATH. cheers Mo DeJong |

Hi Mo, Thanks for the reply. I need to use TclBlend because I have pre-existing Tcl code that uses Itcl and some other Tcl packages. I'm also guessing that TclBlend would be faster since it uses JNI. In order to run Eclipse the user needs to have JRE installed on their system. Is this enough information to get TclBlend to work? Currently, I'm able to set to env variables setenv TCL_LIBRARY /a/b/c/lib/tcl8.4 where: /a/b/c/lib contains libtcl8.4.so and setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /a/b/c/lib where: /a/b/c/lib contains libtclblend.so However, I'm not sure how to set these environment variables within an Eclipse plug-in.
