Hmmm, I think there are Lisp interpreters written in Java. So perhaps you can bridge between them: CLOS --socket sending Lisp instructions ---> lisp interpreter in Java -- sending instructions to Jess withing java calls --> jess other options are using : CLOS generates Jess (CLIPS) instructions it sends to a socket --> java socket feeds it to Jess --> it sends output to a filtering tool (perhaps directly to CLOS). Socket based approach has the advantage of distributed computing if the LAN is fast enough and the CPU load tends to be high ( for example big model with thousands of facts). ---- MGA -------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send the words 'unsubscribe jess-users [EMAIL PROTECTED]' in the BODY of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], NOT to the list (use your own address!)
