Class Repl

java.lang.Object
ch.turic.Repl
public class Repl extends Object
A REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) interpreter that executes code incrementally. This interpreter can process and execute small pieces of code sequentially, maintaining state between executions.

The interpreter manages its own context and provides support for code completion through the completions() method. It handles lexical analysis, program analysis, and execution of the provided code.

Thread Safety: This class is not thread-safe and should not be used in a multi-threaded environment. Each instance maintains mutable state that could be corrupted by concurrent access.
