Hi,
Nashorn implements ECMAScript 262 Edition 5.1 (
http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/5.1/ ). Top level "JSON"
object and it's 'parse' and 'stringify' methods are specified in that
specification.
There are a few nashorn specific extensions - which will be documented
in "Java scripting programmer's guide" before jdk8 is released. In the
meanwhile, you can check out nashorn mercurial repo from here:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/nashorn/jdk8/nashorn
and check out $nashorn/docs directory.
Hope this helps,
-Sundar

First post so apologies if my terminology is off.
I started experimenting with jjs today and thought I would have a go at loading
some JSON data that's of interest to me. So I started Googling around for the
best way to do that.
I quickly figured out that within jjs there's a top level object defined called
JSON which has a method called parse().
But that leads to a question: should I be writing code that uses objects that I
find by accident like this? Are they a public API which will be possible to
rely on?
How can I find out what exists in general and whether it is public or an
implementation detail?
