Use Apache BSF API to realize the interaction between dynamic language and Java
Apache BSF (Bean Safting Framework) API is an open source tool for embedding scripting language into the Java program.It provides a universal framework that enables Java programs to interact with dynamic language, such as JavaScript, Python, Ruby, etc.Through the BSF API, we can embed these dynamic language into the Java application and dynamically execute the script during runtime.
The interaction between dynamic language and Java using BSF API is very simple.The following is an example that demonstrates how to use JavaScript in the Java program for dynamic script execution:
import org.apache.bsf.BSFEngine;
import org.apache.bsf.BSFException;
import org.apache.bsf.BSFManager;
public class BSFExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
// Create BSFMANAGER objects
BSFManager manager = new BSFManager();
// Register the JavaScript interpreter in BSFMANAGER
manager.registerScriptingEngine("javascript", "rhino");
// Perform JavaScript scripts in BSFMANAGER
String script = "var message = 'Hello, BSF!';" +
"print(message);";
manager.exec("javascript", "sample.js", 0, 0, script);
} catch (BSFException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
In the above example, we first created a BSFMANAGER object and registered the JavaScript interpreter (Rhino) through the method of `registerscriptingngine ()`.Then, we used the `Exec ()" method to perform a JavaScript script in BSFMANAGER.This script printed a message: "Hello, BSF!".
Using BSF API can also realize the two -way interaction between dynamic language and Java.By using the `DeclareBean () method, we can expose the Java object to the dynamic language script and use the method and attribute of the object in the script.Dynamic language can also call Java code and pass parameters.
By using Apache BSF API, we can easily integrate dynamic languages into Java applications.This provides developers with greater flexibility and options, so that they can use their best language to program.
I hope this article can help you understand how to use APACHE BSF API to achieve interaction between dynamic language and Java.
