[dbohdan] 2015-08-01: I found this page difficult to parse, so I restructured it creating sections that I thought would be the best for organizing the information here. I ordered the news items and the discussions topics chronologically newest to oldest. JJM, I hope you don't mind the changes.

Anybody knows how this fly with Modern http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Runtime%|%WindowsRuntime%|%? If it does well, it can open a way to simply and easily make Tcl-enabled Windows (Phone) Store Apps!

This project is an awesome idea and should help people integrate Tcl in their .NET projects and should bring more visibility/popularity to Tcl.

[mh2] It seems to me that ToCharArray method of the class String returns "tcl list of characters", not .NET object;
eagle {set s1 [object create -alias String "qqq www eee"]}
eagle {$s1 ToCharArray}
#% q q q { } w w w { } e e e
as a result, I can not call BlockCopy method:
catch { eagle {
set b1 [object create -alias {Byte[]} 1000]
object invoke System.Buffer BlockCopy [$s1 ToCharArray] 0 $b1 0 [$b1 Length]}
} err; set err
#% could not convert method #3 "System.Buffer.BlockCopy" argument #0 "src" with value
"q q q { } w w w { } e e e" to type "System.Array": System.NullReference
Is it possible to cope somehow with that problem??? (may be, by using some special options?)
[JJM] Sure. In the call to [$s1 ToCharArray], simply use the -create option, like this:
[$s1 -create ToCharArray]
[mh2] Thanks. Is there somewhere a description of an "object" command and options such as "-create" ?
[DEC] I'm sure this would get more traction if some documentation were produced. Coming from a Tcl C perspective I have no idea
how to drive this, some more detailed examples would be good.
[JJM] The [https://eagle.to/tutorial/01/index.html%|%Eagle Integration Tutorial%|%] is now available. Looking forward to feedback on it.

[RS] 2008-10-06: As Eagle is a Tcl reimplementation (somehow comparable to [Jacl] or [tcl.js]?), do you test it with the Tcl test suite?
2008/10/06 [JJM] - Currently, it supports old-style tests and quite a few tests can run unmodified in Eagle; a more extensive test suite is a work in progress..
