[Advanced-java] On the fly compile

[lisa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Lisa Retief)]

Hi Valentin,

You could write a CustomClassLoader which compiled the classes at runtime. I
have a PDF tutorial which describes how to do exactly this, and includes
source code. It is 80K - let me know if you would like me to email this to
you.

Regards, Lisa

    Hello people,

I use javaCC to parse my own mini-language which results in some bits of
generated java code.
Is there a way to compile that code without writing to the disk and calling
javac as an external process?
I mean, starting from a String containing the source code can I get to a
class that's known to the system without touching the disk either for the
.java or the .class file?


    thanks,
    Valentin Tablan
