I have a class instance that has a Callable
field on it. I set this instance on a Bindings
object. I need to set the Callable
field from within Nashorn, to be called in Java. How would I set this field from within a Nashorn script?
The script is called like this:
//in java
class Options {
Callable<Boolean> handler;
}
ScriptEngine engine = new ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("nashorn");
Bindings bindings = engine.createBindings();
Options options = new Options();
bindings.put("options", options);
engine.setBindings(bindings, ScriptContext.ENGINE_SCOPE);
engine.eval(script);
Invocable executor = (Invocable) engine;
executor.invokeFunction("init");
And in the script, I need to set the handler
field on the global Options
object:
//in nashorn
function init() {
//How would I set a Callable on this field, from within nashorn?
options.handler = ?
}
I have seen the (suggested duplicate) question How to use Nashorn engine to call Java Objects, but that question is about calling a Java method from a Nashorn script, whereas this question is about setting a callable inside a Nashorn script, which can then be called from Java (basically the opposite).
Based on the 'Extending classes' section in this nashorn tutorial. Tested, worked for me:
var Callable = Java.type('java.util.concurrent.Callable');
var CallableImpl = Java.extend(Callable, {
call: function() {
print('test');
}
});
options.handler = new CallableImpl();
