| 27 * Inter-operability between different languages is covered by this package. | |
| 28 * In case you are implementing own {@link com.oracle.truffle.api.TruffleLanguage} and you want | |
| 29 * to interact with other {@link com.oracle.truffle.api.TruffleLanguage language implementations} | |
| 30 * you need to use types from this package. | |
| 31 * <p> | |
| 32 * Different languages can exchange either wrappers of primitive Java | |
| 33 * types (like {@link Integer}, {@link Double}, {@link String}), or they | |
| 34 * can export their own types (if they implement {@link TruffleObject} interface). | |
| 35 * Btw. One can recognize foreign object if it implements {@link TruffleObject}. | |
| 36 * <p> | |
| 37 * To use {@link TruffleObject} from a different language one needs to ask | |
| 38 * the language to build appropriate AST for a given {@link Message}. To do | |
| 39 * so use {@link ForeignAccess#node(com.oracle.truffle.api.interop.Message)} | |
| 40 * and when calling it {@link ForeignAccess#execute(com.oracle.truffle.api.nodes.Node, com.oracle.truffle.api.frame.VirtualFrame, com.oracle.truffle.api.interop.TruffleObject, java.lang.Object...)}. | |
