I just created a window that gives access to the JavaScript (Rhino) engine at the server side. Basically, the user can send a JS code to the server. The code will have the response and the request instances, so the user can lookup a bean and execute one of its methods from a web page.
Here is the code: http://people.apache.org/~tveronezi/ConsoleServlet.java Here is how to create a JS for it: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/scripting/programmer_guide/index.html It seems really dangerous! Do you think that limiting the access to localhost and adding servlet security is enough? Do you think I should add this feature at all? []s, Thiago.
