What: JTcl Where: ftp://ftp.gaertner.de/pub/j/jtcl-1.0.tar.gz Where: https://kenai.com/projects/jtcl/downloads Description: Java script library allowing access to the Tcl language. Can invoke Tcl extensions such as Tk, allowing Java programmers to create GUI interfaces for Java applications. Updated: 07/2013 Version: 2.5.0 Contact: mailto: [email protected]
JTcl Interpreter is an implementation of Tcl 8.4 in Java.
MHo 2013-03-01: The tool paraffin.tcl doesn't work for me (Windows XP platform). The command
set jtclJar [ziplib::getClassLocation [java::getinterp]]
gives an unusable filename on windows, with a leading slash '/'. But even working around this, somethings going wrong (did not have the time to look further yet):
c:\Programme\jtcl-2.4.0>jtcl paraffin.tcl iskvprep6 ./iskvprep6 iskvprep6.bat .

TP What is the pathname of your Java install? Please attach the output of "parray env" from the JTcl interactive shell. By the way, http://mailinator.com is useful for one-time email addresses :-)

TP I think I might see your problem, look at your command line:
c:\Programme\jtcl-2.4.0>jtcl paraffin.tcl iskvprep6 ./iskvprep6 iskvprep6.bat .
The parameters to paraffin.tcl are app-name source-directory start-file [ jar-directory ]
start-file should be the Tcl file that is your main script, not a batch file. jar-directory should be a directory that only contains the additional jar files you need for your application. You are using "." as the jar-directory, which probably contains files other than jar files. Does your application require additional jar files? If so, place all of those jar files in a clean directory.
See the example at: http://jtcl.kenai.com/docs/paraffin.html for more information.
MHo: iskvprep6.bat is a tcl script. Some scripts that I write allways start this way:
#!/bin/sh
# \
exec /iskv/tools/tclkitsh "$0" ${1+"$@"}
::if 0 {
@cls
@tclkitsh859.exe "%~dpn0.bat" %*
@goto :EOF
}
:
:And I don't need additional JARs, I think. But of course I will look at the example.
MHo 2013-03-08: Don't know what I made different than before (besides looking at the documentation page which I missed before), but the paraffin step now works ok and produces a .jar file. Running the .jar file gives the following error:
C:\Programme\jtcl-2.4.0>java -jar iskvprep6.jar

Instead of a true virtual file system (like C/Tcl), JTcl only recognizes resource: in open and source commands. To make this work, you'll have to modify your application to not use file on a resource: pathname.
MHo: Then, how to get the filetime of the script itself?
TP Unfortunately, there's not an easy way. The included package ziplib has a library command to open and traverse a zip or jar file. See the second example at: http://jtcl.kenai.com/docs/jtcllib/ziplib.html Instead of using the getName method, use getTime, which will return the zip entry's modification time in milliseconds.
