I am thinking about writing a Java application where the user can write some modules in Java and add them to a library in this application. The modules will be some calculations that use data from the main app. Maybe a bit like VBA in Office.
I would appreciate if someone would give me some hints where to start as I couldn’t find something useful on the net.
Thanks in advance!
you might be better off incorporating some form of jvm scripting language. Something like groovy, jruby or jython. Those don’t need actual compilation and can be stored in your system as source. Plus they can be quite nice to write code in too. Groovy has the advantage of being a superset of java. (For the most part) you could just degrade to java code, and run it in the groovy interpreter.
