I'm trying to get two way communication working for a browser project in Nashorn and I'm having trouble implementing an HTML to host callback. I tried this in Java using setMember and it works perfectly, but I can't seem to duplicate it with Nashorn. Since using setMember didn't work I decided to use the approach below but still no luck.
I don't want to pick up objects from the window object, I want to plant a function in window that will call Nashorn code. Again getting this to work in Java was no problem. I followed the instructions on this page https://blogs.oracle.com/nashorn/entry/porting_from_the_browser_to I have the jsObject wrapper shown in the article and it works fine. but the code below doesn't work. This is the relevant snip from the load handler. This.engine.loadWorker.stateProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener() { changed: function(value, oldState, newState) { switch(newState){ case Worker.State.SUCCEEDED: This.document = wrap(This.engine.executeScript("document")); This.window = wrap(This.engine.executeScript("window")); This.window.hello = function(){ This.hello(); } As you can see I planted a function on the window called hello, which calls a method of the webview wrapper (same wrapper as in the article) called hello() This.hello = function(){ print("****** hello it worked *******"); } I then set up the alert handler This.engine.onAlert = new javafx.event.EventHandler() { handle: function(evt) { print(evt.data) } }; and then finally loaded the HTML file below into the webview. <html> <head> <title>Nashorn Browser</title> <script type="text/Javascript"> function sayhello(){ try{ hello(); }catch(e){ alert(e.message) } } </script> </head> <body> <a href="#" onclick="sayhello(); return false;">Say Hello</a> </body> </html> What I get back in the console is. JavaRuntimeObject is not a function (evaluating 'window.hello()') Is there any way to establish a callback into my Nashorn code the way it can be done in Java?
