Description Jesse Glick 1999-03-03 18:54:45 UTC
Would be nice to have interpreter module supporting actual Java syntax and using the Java compiler to parse it (so that using inner classes would work fine, etc.). Advantage over Pnuts atd. being th
at there is no (or absolutely minimal) extra syntax, so user can be more confident that same code would work in a source file.

See attached JAR for ideas on functionality (_not_ for code; it is PD).


I think we need interpreter that we could provide our own execution environment. => when somebody is accessing variable xyz we can catch such request and provide the value we think it should have. It
would be useful in providing access to Debugger objects (remote values) in "debugger interpreter"


[jglick] JPython support is in the works, see Module Wishlist or ask Jesse.Glick@netbeans.com; this is probably the best approach in general, though debugger integration would be very nice too
