What is libbsf-java-doc
libbsf-java-doc is:
Bean Scripting Framework (BSF) is a set of Java classes which provides scripting language support within Java applications, and access to Java objects and methods from scripting languages. BSF allows one to write JSPs in languages other than Java while providing access to the Java class library. In addition, BSF permits any Java application to be implemented in part (or dynamically extended) by a language that is embedded within it. This is achieved by providing an API that permits calling scripting language engines from within Java, as well as an object registry that exposes Java objects to these scripting language engines.
BSF supports these scripting languages:
- Python (using Jython)
- JavaScript (using rhino)
- XSLT Stylesheets (as a component of Apache XML project’s Xalan and Xerces)
- BeanShell (using bsh) via its own bsf adapter
