This directory contains a small example of how to generate and compile 
a labcomm endpoint on the fly.

the script static.sh builds and runs a very simple static labcomm demo

the script dynamic.sh builds and runs an example where labcomm is generated and woven
togerther with user-defined handler code. 


the test.sh script builds and runs the TestLabCommGen, which illustrates the 
on-the-fly compilation to RAM, reading the labcomm declarations and handlers from file

The handlers declaration (in handlers.txt) is experimental, and has the following format:

<sample name>:handler(<data type> <variable name>) {
	<handler method code>
}###

where the end marker (}###) is a kludge to avoid having to parse the method body while still allowing
it to contain blocks. Thus, having the sequence "}###" in the method body breaks this. Caveat hacker!

An example handlers declaration:

foo:handler(foo value) {
	System.out.println("foo handler from handlers.txt");
	System.out.println(value.x);
	System.out.println(value.y);
	System.out.println(value.z);
	for(int i=0; i<value.x; i++){
		System.out.print("."+(value.x-i));
	}
	System.out.println();
}###
bar:handler(int value) {
	System.out.println(value);
}###

Note that parameters differ: the value for foo is an object but for bar it is a primitive type (int) value.
