Package
Description
javax.script
The scripting API consists of interfaces and classes that define Java Scripting Engines and provides a framework for their use in Java applications.

- ## Uses of Bindings in javax.script

  Classes in javax.script that implement Bindings
  Modifier and Type
  Class
  Description
  `class`
  `SimpleBindings`
  A simple implementation of Bindings backed by a `HashMap` or some other specified `Map`.
  Fields in javax.script declared as Bindings
  Modifier and Type
  Field
  Description
  `protected Bindings`
  SimpleScriptContext.`engineScope`
  This is the engine scope bindings.
  `protected Bindings`
  SimpleScriptContext.`globalScope`
  This is the global scope bindings.
  Methods in javax.script that return Bindings
  Modifier and Type
  Method
  Description
  `Bindings`
  ScriptEngine.`createBindings()`
  Returns an uninitialized `Bindings`.
  `Bindings`
  AbstractScriptEngine.`getBindings(int scope)`
  Returns the `Bindings` with the specified scope value in the protected `context` field.
  `Bindings`
  ScriptContext.`getBindings(int scope)`
  Gets the `Bindings` associated with the given scope in this `ScriptContext`.
  `Bindings`
  ScriptEngine.`getBindings(int scope)`
  Returns a scope of named values.
  `Bindings`
  ScriptEngineManager.`getBindings()`
  `getBindings` returns the value of the `globalScope` field.
  `Bindings`
  SimpleScriptContext.`getBindings(int scope)`
  Returns the value of the `engineScope` field if specified scope is `ENGINE_SCOPE`.
  Methods in javax.script with parameters of type Bindings
  Modifier and Type
  Method
  Description
  `Object`
  AbstractScriptEngine.`eval(Reader reader, Bindings bindings)`
  `eval(Reader, Bindings)` calls the abstract `eval(Reader, ScriptContext)` method, passing it a `ScriptContext` whose Reader, Writers and Bindings for scopes other that `ENGINE_SCOPE` are identical to those members of the protected `context` field.
  `Object`
  AbstractScriptEngine.`eval(String script, Bindings bindings)`
  Same as `eval(Reader, Bindings)` except that the abstract `eval(String, ScriptContext)` is used.
  `Object`
  CompiledScript.`eval(Bindings bindings)`
  Executes the program stored in the `CompiledScript` object using the supplied `Bindings` of attributes as the `ENGINE_SCOPE` of the associated `ScriptEngine` during script execution.
  `Object`
  ScriptEngine.`eval(Reader reader, Bindings n)`
  Same as `eval(String, Bindings)` except that the source of the script is provided as a `Reader`.
  `Object`
  ScriptEngine.`eval(String script, Bindings n)`
  Executes the script using the `Bindings` argument as the `ENGINE_SCOPE` `Bindings` of the `ScriptEngine` during the script execution.
  `protected ScriptContext`
  AbstractScriptEngine.`getScriptContext(Bindings nn)`
  Returns a `SimpleScriptContext`.
  `void`
  AbstractScriptEngine.`setBindings(Bindings bindings, int scope)`
  Sets the `Bindings` with the corresponding scope value in the `context` field.
  `void`
  ScriptContext.`setBindings(Bindings bindings, int scope)`
  Associates a `Bindings` instance with a particular scope in this `ScriptContext`.
  `void`
  ScriptEngine.`setBindings(Bindings bindings, int scope)`
  Sets a scope of named values to be used by scripts.
  `void`
  ScriptEngineManager.`setBindings(Bindings bindings)`
  `setBindings` stores the specified `Bindings` in the `globalScope` field.
  `void`
  SimpleScriptContext.`setBindings(Bindings bindings, int scope)`
  Sets a `Bindings` of attributes for the given scope.
  Constructors in javax.script with parameters of type Bindings
  Modifier
  Constructor
  Description
  ``
  `AbstractScriptEngine(Bindings n)`
  Creates a new instance using the specified `Bindings` as the `ENGINE_SCOPE` `Bindings` in the protected `context` field.
