[GAP Forum] Using Java to launch GAP

[Mark Spanbroek]

Hi Marc,

in our Java GAP library, we pass the '-p' parameter to GAP. This ensures that 
GAP produces output that is easier to parse. For instance, whenever GAP is 
waiting for input, it always outputs @i first (or @e in case of an error). 
The code in which we handle this can be found at:
https://mathdox.org/svn/repos/public/gapclient/source/java/org/mathdox/gapclient/GapConnection.java

You can also check out the complete library from 
https://mathdox.org/svn/repos/public/gapclient and 
https://mathdox.org/svn/repos/public/socketservice using Subversion.

I hope this helps,

Mark
