To be able to develop Scilab interface in C++

[Sylvestre Ledru]

Hello,

I answer here because others might be interested.

Yann, I noticed your change on the wiki:
http://wiki.scilab.org/Ideas_of_development_for_Scilab?action=diff&rev2=36&rev1=35

It is already possible and pretty easy. For example, if you have a look
to this code:
http://viewvc.scilab.org/bin/cgi/viewvc.cgi/trunk/scilab/modules/helptools/sci_gateway/cpp/sci_buildDoc.cpp?revision=27036&view=markup

You will see this pure C++ code:
		if (doc->setOutputDirectory(outputDirectory)) 
		{
			doc->setWorkingLanguage(language);
			doc->setExportFormat(exportFormat);
			doc->process(masterXML, styleSheet);
			
			LhsVar(1) = 0;
			C2F(putlhsvar)();
		}
[...]

By the way, this code shows how easy it is to map a Java Method into
Scilab (thanks to GIWS [1]).

I started a doc on this:
http://wiki.scilab.org/Call_a_Java_object_from_Scilab
I will add examples when I have the time for it.

Sylvestre
