    Calling Mathematica from Java

    Setup the KernelLink


    String[] argv1 = {
    "-linkmode", "launch", "-linkname",
    "c:\\program files\\wolfram
    research\\mathematica\\5.2\\mathkernel.exe" };

    KernelLink ml = MathLinkFactory.createKernelLink(argv1);

    Evaluate Expression
    ml.evaluate("2+2");
    ml.waitForAnswer();

    int result = ml.getInteger();


    System.out.println("2 + 2 = " + result);

    Get Image Data

    ml.discardAnswer();
    Image img = ml.evaluateToImage(
    "Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 2Pi}]",
    450, 450);
    Sample Code
    KernelLink ml = null;

    String[] argv1 = { "-linkmode", "launch", "-linkname",


    "c:\\program files\\wolfram research\\mathematica\\5.2\\mathkernel.exe" };

    // Create a KernelLink
    try {
    ml = MathLinkFactory.createKernelLink(argv1);
    }
    catch (MathLinkException e) {
    System.out.println("Fatal error opening link: " + e.getMessage());
    return;
    }

    try {
    // Get rid of the initial InputNamePacket the kernel
    // will send when it is launched.
    ml.discardAnswer();

    ml.evaluate("<<MyPackage.m");
    ml.discardAnswer();

    ml.evaluate("2+2");
    ml.waitForAnswer();

    int result = ml.getInteger();


    System.out.println("2 + 2 = " + result);

    // Here's how to send the same input, but not as a string:


    ml.putFunction("EvaluatePacket", 1);
    ml.putFunction("Plus", 2);
    ml.put(3);
    ml.put(3);
    ml.endPacket();
    ml.waitForAnswer();
    result = ml.getInteger();
    System.out.println("3 + 3 = " + result);

    // If you want the result back as a string, use evaluateToInputForm


    // or evaluateToOutputForm. The second arg for either is the
    // requested page width for formatting the string. Pass 0 for
    // PageWidth->Infinity. These methods get the result in one
    // step--no need to call waitForAnswer.
    String strResult = ml.evaluateToOutputForm("4+4", 0);
    System.out.println("4 + 4 = " + strResult);

    strResult = ml.evaluateToOutputForm(" Integrate[Cos[x], x]", 0);


    System.out.println("Integrate[Cos[x], x] = " + strResult);

    }
    catch (MathLinkException e)
    {
    System.out.println("MathLinkException occurred: " + e.getMessage());
    }
    finally
    {
    // Close the KernelLink
    ml.close();
    }
    Output from Sample Code
    2 + 2 = 4
    3 + 3 = 6
    4 + 4 = 8
    4 + 4 = Sin[x]
