A question on functionality

[Robert Field]

I'm afraid I don't understand your question. You can evaluate any code that 
you can evaluate in Java. The code evaluates on a fixed thread , which is 
an issue for JavaFX but not Swing. And the event dispatch thread issue will 
be resolved.

Can you give an example of what is not working.
