org.mozilla.javascript.Context:
Object[] args = { new Long(date.getTime()) };
cx.newObject(scope, "Date", args);
And from JS to Java, with s as org.mozilla.javascript.Scriptable:
if ("Date".equals(s.getClassName())
date = new Date((long) ScriptRuntime.toNumber(s));
I agree there should be an easy way to do this.
