P.S.: Have been working on a local copy of BSF 2.4, but still need time to
do all what needs to be done besides my current workload. But with your
initiative and sebb's help things definitely move ...
Is the roadmap posted somewhere? What are the things you mention need
doing, and what are their priorities?
No, no roadmap that I am aware of.
Here are my ideas/plans for BSF 2.4:
* incorporate the Jira-issues (e.g. suggestion to add the ability
for better debugging information for the Rhino-/Javascript-engine)
o here sebb's ideas would be incorporated by sebb, I hope
* incorporate ant's BSF engine that imports the JSR-223 (a.k.a. Java
6/BSF 3.0) scripting engines
o would like the default import to not replace BSF 2.4
engines, but supply another method for that
* add methods to the BSFManager to retrieve the registered BSF
engines and the filetypes (extensions)
* maybe creating a JSR-223 engine distributed with BSF 2.4 which
would make all BSF 2.4 engines available (allowing BSF 2.4 engines
to be employed by Java 6/BSF 3.0)
o this would allow to deploy BSF 2.4 for Java6/BSF 3.0
environments and interfacing with the BSF 2.4 engines using
the JSR-223 defined interfaces
o this might take a while though (it is a matter of having a
few days available to get re-acquainted with JSR-223 before
devising and implementing this)
