In general I consider the API to be the classes in the public javadoc. It's an error I made 10 years ago not separating the API into a different package. Methods in ScriptRuntime are public because they are referenced from compiled scripts. We can't change the signature of those methods since people don't necessarily recompile all their scripts on every release. That being said, we can change the error messages that are created. What's the yyy in your proposed message? Want to propose a patch? --N _______________________________________________ dev-tech-js-engine-rhino mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-js-engine-rhino
