Fulcrum components bsf and groovy obsoleted by script?

Hi folks,

My understanding of the intention of fucrum-script is that it supports
all JSR-223 implementations of scripting engines. Would that be a true
replacement for the other scripting components? I would like to get rid
of them then. Your comments are welcomed. Especially Siegfrieds as we
already talked about the subject but I cannot remember the outcome...

Bye, Thomas.

Hi Thomas,

some historical background

+) I needed a scripting integration for one of my products
+) I had a look at BSF and found it largely deserted
+) I wrote fulcrum-groovy but groovy was never stable enough for
production usage
+) I discovered the brand new JSR-223 and it gives me a script compile
functionality to improve performance ... yippie
+) Sun still worked on the JSR-223 spec (being part of JDK 1.6) and
provided samples and libraries to be downloaded
+) I got fulcrum-script it running in this ver early state (pre-final)
using JavaScript and Groovy
+) unfortunately Sun made a last minute change to the final Spec
+) I got in touch with the JSR-223 spec lead and he told me that Sun
might publish a final javax.script library to be used with JDK 1.4

Soo far so good

+) I downloaded the final spec and they have an updated javax.script
+) I have a look to see if it is working somehow under with fulcrum and
JDK 1.4

Cheers,

Siegfried Goeschl
