I believe that Rhino 1.6 implements JavaScript 1.6, but the Rhino doc I saw was not 100% consistent... Any clarification welcome, would be useful to mention language version implemented.

yeah iam currently working in that. i dont see mozilla documents are not really helpful in guiding devolpers. i need to know how to specify the src script attribute here in Rhino. does anyone know? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rammyramkumar (talkcontribs) 09:35, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The second example is buggy: At EOF, S.readLine() will return null, so S.readLine().toUpperCase() throws an exception. better:

// The same as: import java.io.*;
importPackage(java.io);
importPackage(java.lang);

// "in" is a keyword in Javascript. 
// In Rhino you could query for an attribute using [] syntax: 
// Ex: System['out']
S = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(System['in']) );
s = true;

while (s){
    s = S.readLine();
    if (s) System.out.println(s.toUpperCase());
}

-- Shouldn't this be sufficient (and more readable):

// The same as: import java.io.*;
importPackage(java.io);
importPackage(java.lang);

// "in" is a keyword in Javascript. 
// In Rhino you could query for an attribute using [] syntax: 
// Ex: System['out']
S = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(System['in']) );

while (s = S.readLine()){
    System.out.println(s.toUpperCase());
}

Okay to list software that uses Rhino

Can we add a list of software solutions that use the Rhino JavaScript Engine? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.217.64.22 (talk) 22:07, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to WikiProject JavaScript

WikiProject JavaScript is now up and running!

Collaboration...

If you are interested in collaborating on JavaScript articles or would like to see where you could help, stop by Wikipedia:WikiProject JavaScript and feel free to add your name to the participants list. Both editors and programmers are welcome.

Treasure hunt...

We've found over 300 JavaScript-related articles so far. If you come across any others, please add them to that list!

Sound off!

If you have something to say about the state of coverage of JavaScript on Wikipedia, stop by the WikiProject's talk page, and share your thoughts.

User script heaven

The WikiProject is also taking on the organization of the Wikipedia community's user script support pages. If you are interested in helping to organize information on the user scripts (or are curious about what we are up to), let us know!

We take requests

If you have need for a user script that does not yet exist, or you have a cool idea for a user script or gadget, you can post it at Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests. And if you are a JavaScript programmer, that's a great place to find tasks if you are bored.

How to report articles in need of attention

If you come across a JavaScript article desperately in need of editor attention, and it's beyond your ability to handle, you can add it to our list of JavaScript-related articles that need attention.

Wanted: Critics

At the top of the talk page of most every JavaScript-related article is a WikiProject JavaScript template where you can record the quality class and importance of the article. Doing so will help the community track the stage of completion and watch the highest priority articles more closely.

Welcome

Your participation and feedback are always welcome.

Thank you. The Transhumanist 01:13, 12 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
