26/**
27 * This package provides the {@code javax.script} integration, which is the preferred way to use Nashorn.
28 * You will ordinarily do this to obtain an instance of a Nashorn script engine:
29 * <pre>
30 * import javax.script.*;
31 * ...
32 * ScriptEngine nashornEngine = new ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("Nashorn");
33 * </pre>
34 * <p>Nashorn script engines implement the optional {@link javax.script.Invocable} and {@link javax.script.Compilable}
35 * interfaces, allowing for efficient pre-compilation and repeated execution of scripts. In addition,
36 * this package provides nashorn specific extension classes, interfaces and methods. See
37 * {@link jdk.nashorn.api.scripting.NashornScriptEngineFactory} for further details.
