ScriptEngine

A JSR 223 (Scripting API) compatible wrapper around the REPL for improved interoperability with software that supports it.

It works by instantiating a new script engine through the script engine manager. The script engine provides a eval method to evaluate scripts in string form. Example use:

val m = new javax.script.ScriptEngineManager() val e = m.getEngineByName("scala") println(e.eval("42"))
