Hi nashorn-dev,
I'm relatively new to Nashorn.
I work on a java 8 application that needs to run server side javascript scripts
using Nashorn. The java code runs the scripts at certain points using nashorn's
eval function, like this:
SimpleBindings simpleBinding= new SimpleBindings();
simpleBinding.put(....);
...
ScriptEngineManager factory = new ScriptEngineManager();
engine = factory.getEngineByName("nashorn");
engine.eval("load('"+scriptpath+"');", simpleBinding);
In addition, I need to provide a way to debug those scripts.
The only option I could find was using Netbeans debugger (remote attach).
The scripts work fine.
The debugger, though, fails to stop at the breakpoints inside the scripts in
the following scenario:
1- Server started
2- The script is running once
3- Open Netbeans, attach remote debugger
4- Run script again
It will stop at the breakpoints inside the scripts in the following scenario:
1- Server started
2- Open Netbeans, attach remote debugger
3- Run the script
So, what am I doing wrong?
What can cause such behavior?
Is there a reasonable workaround?
Thanks in advance,
Dina
