[Swift-devel] Executing a swift task from Java application

[Ioan Raicu]

Perhaps what you want is something like Falkon? Falkon is a stand-alone 
system, that probably gives you most of the functionality of coasters. 
If you are already familiar with the Swift code-base, perhaps its best 
to figure out how to use coasters separately.
