Note, Nashorn got removed from the standard JDK 15, but got resurrected as its own proper OpenJDK module such that one can continue to use Nashorn on JDK 15 or later. [1]
---rony [1] <https://github.com/openjdk/nashorn> P.S.: Have tested my implementation with Nashorn on Java 8 and it works out of the box! Still, you would need to test the implementation thoroughly yourself (stability, performance, resources) and would be asked to come back with feedback on each of these qualities. So stay tuned, will publish a link to the implementation with a proper Nashorn/JavaScript sample war in this mail thread in a few days. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
