Nashorn JavaScript engine #1

Closed pditommaso closed 7 years ago

pditommaso commented 7 years ago

It turns out that Java 8 includes the Nashorn JavaScript engine (!)

For example: 

import javax.script.ScriptEngine;
import javax.script.ScriptEngineManager;

ScriptEngineManager factory = new ScriptEngineManager();
ScriptEngine engine = factory.getEngineByName("nashorn");
engine.eval('print("Hello JavaScript world!");');
