Field Detail

writer

protected Writer writer
This is the writer to be used to output from scripts. By default, a PrintWriter based on System.out is used. Accessor methods getWriter, setWriter are used to manage this field.

See Also:
System.out, PrintWriter

errorWriter

protected Writer errorWriter
This is the writer to be used to output errors from scripts. By default, a PrintWriter based on System.err is used. Accessor methods getErrorWriter, setErrorWriter are used to manage this field.

See Also:
System.err, PrintWriter

reader

protected Reader reader
This is the reader to be used for input from scripts. By default, a InputStreamReader based on System.in is used and default charset is used by this reader. Accessor methods getReader, setReader are used to manage this field.

See Also:
System.in, InputStreamReader

engineScope

protected Bindings engineScope
This is the engine scope bindings. By default, a SimpleBindings is used. Accessor methods setBindings, getBindings are used to manage this field.

See Also:
SimpleBindings

globalScope

protected Bindings globalScope
This is the global scope bindings. By default, a null value (which means no global scope) is used. Accessor methods setBindings, getBindings are used to manage this field.

Method Detail

setBindings

public void setBindings(Bindings bindings,
                        int scope)
Sets a Bindings of attributes for the given scope. If the value of scope is ENGINE_SCOPE the given Bindings replaces the engineScope field. If the value of scope is GLOBAL_SCOPE the given Bindings replaces the globalScope field.

Specified by:
setBindings in interface ScriptContext
Parameters:
bindings - The Bindings of attributes to set.
scope - The value of the scope in which the attributes are set.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if scope is invalid.
NullPointerException - if the value of scope is ENGINE_SCOPE and the specified Bindings is null.

getAttribute

public Object getAttribute(String name)
Retrieves the value of the attribute with the given name in the scope occurring earliest in the search order. The order is determined by the numeric value of the scope parameter (lowest scope values first.)

Specified by:
getAttribute in interface ScriptContext
Parameters:
name - The name of the the attribute to retrieve.
Returns:
The value of the attribute in the lowest scope for which an attribute with the given name is defined. Returns null if no attribute with the name exists in any scope.
Throws:
NullPointerException - if the name is null.

Specified by:
getAttribute in interface ScriptContext
Parameters:
name - The name of the attribute to retrieve.
scope - The scope in which to retrieve the attribute.
Returns:
The value of the attribute. Returns null is the name does not exist in the given scope.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the name is empty or if the value of scope is invalid.
NullPointerException - if the name is null.

Specified by:
removeAttribute in interface ScriptContext
Parameters:
name - The name of the attribute to remove
scope - The scope in which to remove the attribute
Returns:
The removed value.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the name is empty or if the scope is invalid.
NullPointerException - if the name is null.

setAttribute

public void setAttribute(String name,
                         Object value,

Sets the value of an attribute in a given scope.

Specified by:
setAttribute in interface ScriptContext
Parameters:
name - The name of the attribute to set
value - The value of the attribute
scope - The scope in which to set the attribute

public int getAttributesScope(String name)
Get the lowest scope in which an attribute is defined.

Specified by:
getAttributesScope in interface ScriptContext
Parameters:
name - Name of the attribute .
