Hi there,
there are two problems with 'EngineUtils.java':
1. the Accessible-functionality is not available on Java 1.1.8 (I
know, *very* old, yet still people use it): for that reason there
is a static method which tests for the availability of that
method, which then later is used for determining how to invoke a
method;
2. there are two kind of bugs: if the boxed primitive datatypes do
not yield a matching signature, then the types are "unboxed", but
the tests for Integer, Long are missing; the other error has to do
with not checking for the boxed datatype Character, such that
"char" are not accounted for in signatures.
In any case # 2 should get applied and commited (plain bug fixes).
Still, what about # 1: it really is only necessary for supporting Java
1.1. It would be great though, if we did support all Java versions as
long as possible, at least with BSF 2.0 (= Apache BSF).
What do you think?
If I do not hear anything by Saturday, I would apply the changes and
commit them.
Regards,
