Option two works... That one looks the best, I'll be sure to use that
form of starting up MonkeyScript so that others don't get bitten by the bug.

There's something wrong in your process. I've just updated from CVS,
executed your commands and worked flawlessly. There's one thing that
bothers me. Why the first line outputted by Rhino is: "Rhino 1.7
release 1 2008 11 26"? It should have outputted the date when you
built the sources, which I assume was not November 26th, 2008.
cvs -d :pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot update -d -R
./mozilla/js/rhino/
This is the command I'm using for updating from cvs.
I set my JAVA_HOME with
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
Run:
ant jar
And to start up the jar built:
java -jar build/rhino1_7R3pre/js.jar -version 170
It feels a little strange myself as well. I see JSON and JS 1.8 code
inside the source code I have, but -version 180 gives me an error.
I'm pretty sure you're being bitten by the OpenJDK Rhino-on-the-
bootclasspath bug.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-6/+bug/255149
In a nutshell, OpenJDK uses the unmodified Rhino package to implement
the JS javax.script.ScriptEngine in a way that makes it impossible to
use your own version of Rhino.
You have the following options to work around this bug:
1. Make the Sun Java packages your default using "sudo update-java-
alternatives -s java-6-sun". Setting the JAVA_HOME environment
variable won't do the trick!
2. Start java with the -Xbootclasspath/p:"/path/to/js.jar" to put your
own Rhino on the boot classpath.
3. Remove the symlink named rhino.jar in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/
jre/lib. (This will probably break the javax.script Rhino engine.)
This is really an annoying issue. One way to fix it would be to bundle
the ScriptingEngine implementation with rhino as I proposed in bug
379385 and then get OpenJDK to use that.
