Hi,

In Nashorn, each ENGINE_SCOPE Bindings instance is associated with it's own Nashorn global instance (an instance of jdk.nashorn.internal.objects.Global class). i.e., each ENGINE_SCOPE Bindings instance is associated with a fresh ECMAScript/JS global scope object - with it's own "Object", "Function", "RegExp" etc.

Nashorn represents script objects crossing JS global boundary as ScriptObjectMirror instances. ScriptObjectMirror is also the way Java code can access any script object (without having to deal with internal jdk.nashorn.internal.runtime.ScriptObject). See also: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/jdk/api/nashorn/jdk/nashorn/api/scripting/ScriptObjectMirror.html

If you access a script object from a JS global scope g1 from another JS global scope g2, you'll get a ScriptObjectMirror wrap. Nashorn attempts to provide seamless integration of ScriptObjectMirror instances - you can treat ScriptObjectMirrors almost like those are script objects. But this integration is not complete. Please see also: https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/Nashorn/Nashorn+jsr223+engine+notes

Not every JS API can work with ScriptObjectMirrors (like these APIs work with script objects that belong to the "current" JS global scope). Object.create is one such API. You can adjust your code slightly. For example:

import javax.script.*;
import jdk.nashorn.api.scripting.*;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
ScriptEngine e = new ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("nashorn"); e.put("foo", e.eval("function() { return {} }", new SimpleBindings()));
        // get "foo"
        ScritptObjectMirror foo = (ScriptObjectMirror)e.get("foo");
// eval Object.create in the global where "foo" belongs - with "foo" set as "this"
        System.out.println(foo.eval("Object.create(this)"));
    }
}

Hope this helps,
-Sundar

Hi,
in my code I’m running into an issue for which 
https://github.com/coveo/nashorn-commonjs-modules/issues/3 luckily provides a 
snippet for reproducing:

     @Test
     public void testObjectCreateOnFunction() throws ScriptException {
         ScriptEngine engine = new 
ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("nashorn");
         engine.put("foo", engine.eval("function() { return {}; }", new 
SimpleBindings()));
         engine.eval("Object.create(foo());");
     }

This fails with:

In my own code, the pattern is slightly different, but it fails similarly 
(SimpleScriptContext internally uses SimpleBindings as well):

     @Test
     public void testObjectCreateInFunction() throws ScriptException {
         ScriptEngine engine = new 
ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("nashorn");
         SimpleScriptContext context = new SimpleScriptContext();
         context.setAttribute("f", engine.eval("(function () 
{Object.create(this)})"), ScriptContext.ENGINE_SCOPE);
         engine.eval("f.call({})", context);
     }

The issue seems to be that the function object internally isn’t turned from 
ScriptObjectMirror into ScriptObject, so Global.checkObject() fails.

I’d be thankful for any hints on whether this may be a bug or intended 
behaviour.

Regards,
Jörg
