-------------------------------------------
Summary: Determine if a custom ScriptContext is required
Key: TINKERPOP-1095
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1095
Project: TinkerPop
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: groovy
Affects Versions: 3.1.0-incubating
Reporter: stephen mallette
Assignee: stephen mallette
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 3.2.0-incubating
The current {{ScriptContext}} in use with the {{ScriptEngine}} is the
{{SimpleScriptContext}}. It doesnt' allow for additional scopes which might be
useful when dealing with the {{ScriptEnginePluginAcceptor}} which allows
plugins to inject "global" bindings into the a {{ScriptEngine}} instance (e.g.
the "hdfs" object with the hadoop plugin).
We currently inject this into the {{GLOBAL_SCOPE}} of the {{ScriptEngine}}
which at the moment doesn't seem to conflict with anything, but I wonder if
more separation is required.
Another alternative would be to manage these types of "globals" with new
methods on the {{DependencyManager}} interface.
