This section describes the scripting shell, 'jrunscript', command and options. The default scripting engine is JavaScript - ECMAScript 1.6 implemention 'Mozilla Rhino' 1.6 release 2.
After installing JDK 1.6 on my machine, I want to get some help information on how to use the "jrunscript"
command by running it with the "-help" option:
C:\herong>\progra~1\java\jdk1.6.0_02\bin\jrunscript -help
Usage: jrunscript [options] [arguments...]
where [options] include:
-classpath <path> Specify where to find user class files
-cp <path> Specify where to find user class files
-D<name>=<value> Set a system property
-J<flag> Pass <flag> directly to the runtime system
-l <language> Use specified scripting language
-e <script> Evaluate given script
-encoding <encoding> Specify character encoding used by script files
-f <script file> Evaluate given script file
-f - Interactive mode, read script from standard
input. If this is used, this should be the last
-f option
-help Print this usage message and exit
-? Print this usage message and exit
-q List all scripting engines available and exit
If [arguments..] are present and if no -e or -f option is used, then
first argument is script file and the rest of the arguments, if any,
are passed as script arguments. If [arguments..] and -e or -f option
is used, then all [arguments..] are passed as script arguments. If
[arguments..], -e, -f are missing, then interactive mode is used.
As the first test, I want to see what are the scripting engines supported
by JDK 1.6 by using the "-q" option:
Nice. My "jrunscript" command is working. There is only one default scripting engine:
JavaScript - ECMAScript 1.6 implemention "Mozilla Rhino" 1.6 release 2.
