Method Detail

createScriptObject

FESI.jslib.JSObject createScriptObject(FESI.jslib.JSGlobalObject go,
                                       FESI.jslib.JSObject parent,
                                       java.lang.String name,
                                       java.lang.Object item)
                                       throws FESI.jslib.JSException

Deprecated.

Create a named object that can be used in the client's script. This method differes from setContextItem in that it will translate the given java object to an object that is compatible with the scripting language implementation and the result can be used in the client scripts, not just by the script engine extensions. The only requirement for the JavaScript object returned is that it has a property that indicates the Java class it was created from. The property is named CLASS_NAME and the value is the name of the Java class.

Parameters:

go - JSGlobalObject as calling context.

parent - JSObject to be registered as a member of. Same as go if global.

name - Name of the object in the scripting environment

item - Object that will be made available as a script object

Returns:

JSObject representing the given object.

Throws:

FESI.jslib.JSException - when the object can not be converted into a format that can be used within the script environment

createJavaObject

java.lang.Object createJavaObject(java.lang.String name,
                                  FESI.jslib.JSObject o)
                                  throws FESI.jslib.JSException

Deprecated.

Create a Java object from the specified JavaScript object. This method is optional. If the factory does not implement it, it must throw an UnsupportedOperationException.

Parameters:

name - Name of the JavaScript object. Can be empty.

o - JSObject to convert from.

Returns:

Java object that represents the JSObject.

Throws:

FESI.jslib.JSException - if the specified JSObject is malformed or not compatible with this factory.
