Besides Java 1.8.0_111 the problem exists in 9ea-+134 (engine version: "9ea",
language version:
"ECMA 262 - Edition 5.1" ) as well: Nashorn's javax.script factory is used to
get an output
statement and then it is used to execute it:
---> language [ECMAScript]: ---------------------------------------->
1) output statement to process: hello world, this is "ECMAScript"
speaking!
--> testing getOutputStatement(String), produced the following
[ECMAScript] output statement
print(hello world, this is "ECMAScript" speaking! )
... now running "eval(code)" using the scripting engine
[ECMAScript]:
javax.script.ScriptException: <eval>:1:12 Expected , but found world
print(hello world, this is "ECMAScript" speaking! )
^ in <eval> at line number 1 at column number 12 while eval()
the code: print(hello
world, this is "ECMAScript" speaking! )
This time trying to not format the Java code, so hopefully the mailer will not
render it illegible:
... cut ...
// create an output statement and execute output statement with the
script engine
static void testEngine(String name, ScriptEngineFactory sef,
ScriptEngine se)
{
System.out.println("---> language ["+name+"]:
---------------------------------------->\n");
String text="hello world, this is \""+name+"\" speaking! ";
String code=sef.getOutputStatement(text);
System.out.println("\t1) output statement to process: "+text+"\n");
System.out.print("\t--> testing getOutputStatement(String)");
System.out.println(", produced the following ["+name+"] output
statement \n\n"+code+"\n");
System.out.println("\t... now running \"eval(code)\" using the
scripting engine
["+name+"]: \n\n");
try
{
se.eval(code);
System.out.println("\n");
}
catch (ScriptException sexc)
{
System.err.println(sexc+" while eval() the code: "+code+"\n");
}
System.out.print("\t2) testing getMethodCallSyntax(obj, meth,
arg...)");
String methCode=sef.getMethodCallSyntax("object", "method", "arg1",
"arg2");
System.out.println(", produced the following ["+name+"] method call
statement:
\n\n"+methCode+"\n");
System.out.print("\t3) testing getProgram(String...)");
String programCode=sef.getProgram(code, methCode);
System.out.println(" produced the following ["+name+"] program:
\n\n"+programCode+"\n");
System.out.println("<--- end of testing language ["+name+"].
<----------------------------------------\n");
}
... cut ...
If I should file a bug then please advise where and how.
