RE: [Dltk-dev] a display console (instead of display view)

["Chuong, Patrick" <pchuong@xxxxxx>]

Our product is using Rhino, it can be refactor into an extension point, than other scripting engine can be use to evaluate the _expression_.

 

JLine is a command processor that I pickup and integrated with the console, I made couple minor changes to prevent flickering in the UI. JLine provides auto-complete, command history, etc.. Similar to the DOS prompt. Here is the link to JLine, http://jline.sourceforge.net/.

 

I am not familiar with the contribution process, is there something that I need to follow to make a contribution?

I am always interested in that.
How does it work, and why only against Rhino/JLine
Because i guess if the debugging scripting api is abstract enough to have support for "eval" then something like that
should be usable for everything.

But if you want to or can contribute something like that, please do, always good to have a quick start..

Hi Johan,

 

I work for Texas Instruments, and we have developed a scripting console that works with Rhino and JLine.

We can contribute this component if there is enough interest.

 

Regards,

Patrick

Hi,

Currently the display view support isnt working for _javascript_,
i was looking into that but come to think of it i really dont like how the display view works
It is very messy , you have to type somewhere something and then select that part and the do Execute and so on

But especially for scripting, this is very cumbersome to use. What i like is a display console
Where you really have a promp where you can type anything you want and when you press enter
that statement is evaluated in the runtime script engine. And then the result of that is outputted a line later

now my question is is there something like this already?
if not wouldnt it be a nice addition for the core dltk?
