No, that is the same execution engine—`workflow-cps` directly implements Scripted, and Declarative is a kind of preprocessor for that. An alternate engine would replace the on-master Groovy interpreter. > if you say that there are problems with returning non-simple data types, are > you also saying that there are problems providing methods that return simple > data types? > e.g. jenkinsRest.api().systemApi().version() -> return the version number as > a String? The problem here is (1) using the `GlobalVariable` extension point (please do not), (2) returning intermediate objects with behaviors. Such idioms rely on particularities of `workflow-cps` (and do not even work well in Declarative). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
