Scripting Language?


I don't know where to post this - so I thought
I would try this one ... it is anything but
"non technical" .

I am aware of a model (hydrologic model) written
in java. It is a compiled program - and has
nothing to do with the web. Anyway, there is
a scripting language (Jython, I think). The
hydrologic model contains very complex rules
on reservoir operation (lake operation). The
users can, on an ad-hoc basis, write additional
rules using Jython in this scripting language.
Apparently, any variable that the user might
need must be created in the java program and
then re-compiled ... but then this scripting
language can use these "exposed variables" in
the scripting language without recompiling.

Assuming I have made any sense with all of
this ... is there any similar capability in
Delphi ??

Thanks to you NON-TECHNICAL people, :)
Bob
