Class CompiledScript

java.lang.Object

javax.script.CompiledScript

public abstract class CompiledScript
extends Object

Extended by classes that store results of compilations. State might be stored in the form of Java classes, Java class files or scripting language opcodes. The script may be executed repeatedly without reparsing.

Each CompiledScript is associated with a ScriptEngine -- A call to an eval method of the CompiledScript causes the execution of the script by the ScriptEngine. Changes in the state of the ScriptEngine caused by execution of the CompiledScript may visible during subsequent executions of scripts by the engine.

Since:

1.6

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
protected Object	clone()	Answers a new instance of the same class as the receiver, whose slots have been filled in with the values in the slots of the receiver.
boolean	equals(Object o)	Compares the argument to the receiver, and answers true if they represent the same object using a class specific comparison.
protected void	finalize()	Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version. May cause performance issues, deadlocks and hangs.
final Class<? extends Object>	getClass()	Answers the unique instance of java.lang.Class which represents the class of the receiver.
int	hashCode()	Answers an integer hash code for the receiver.
final void	notify()	Causes one thread which is waiting on the receiver to be made ready to run.
final void	notifyAll()	Causes all threads which are waiting on the receiver to be made ready to run.
String	toString()	Answers a string containing a concise, human-readable description of the receiver.
final void	wait()	Causes the thread which sent this message to be made not ready to run pending some change in the receiver (as indicated by notify or notifyAll).
final void	wait(long time)	Causes the thread which sent this message to be made not ready to run either pending some change in the receiver (as indicated by notify or notifyAll) or the expiration of the timeout.
final void	wait(long time, int frac)	Causes the thread which sent this message to be made not ready to run either pending some change in the receiver (as indicated by notify or notifyAll) or the expiration of the timeout.

Method Details

eval

public abstract Object eval(ScriptContext context)
                     throws ScriptException

Executes the program stored in this CompiledScript object.

Parameters:

context - A ScriptContext that is used in the same way as the ScriptContext passed to the eval methods of ScriptEngine.

Returns:

The value returned by the script execution, if any. Should return null if no value is returned by the script execution.

Throws:

ScriptException - if an error occurs.

NullPointerException - if context is null.

eval

public Object eval(Bindings bindings)
            throws ScriptException

Executes the program stored in the CompiledScript object using the supplied Bindings of attributes as the ENGINE_SCOPE of the associated ScriptEngine during script execution. If bindings is null, then the effect of calling this method is same as that of eval(getEngine().getContext()).

. The GLOBAL_SCOPE Bindings, Reader and Writer associated with the default ScriptContext of the associated ScriptEngine are used.

Parameters:

bindings - The bindings of attributes used for the ENGINE_SCOPE.

Returns:

The return value from the script execution

Throws:

ScriptException - if an error occurs.

eval

public Object eval()
            throws ScriptException

Executes the program stored in the CompiledScript object. The default ScriptContext of the associated ScriptEngine is used. The effect of calling this method is same as that of eval(getEngine().getContext()).

Returns:

The return value from the script execution

Throws:

ScriptException - if an error occurs.

getEngine

public abstract ScriptEngine getEngine()

Returns the ScriptEngine whose compile method created this CompiledScript. The CompiledScript will execute in this engine.

Returns:

The ScriptEngine that created this CompiledScript
