Class JavaEmbedUtils

java.lang.Object

org.jruby.javasupport.JavaEmbedUtils

public class JavaEmbedUtils
extends java.lang.Object

Utility functions to help embedders out. These function consolidate logic that is used between BSF and JSR 223. People who are embedding JRuby 'raw' should use these as well. If at a later date, we discover a flaw or change how we do things, this utility class should provide some insulation. Example: Ruby runtime = JavaEmbedUtils.initialize(new ArrayList()); RubyRuntimeAdapter evaler = JavaEmbedUtils.newRuntimeAdapter(); IRubyObject rubyObject = evaler.parse(runtime, expr.toString(), file, line).run()); SomeClassOrInterface javaObject = (SomeClassOrInterface) JavaEmbedUtils.rubyToJava(rubyObject); runtime.terminate();

Method Detail

initialize

public static Ruby initialize(java.util.List<java.lang.String> loadPaths)

Get an instance of a JRuby runtime. Provide any loadpaths you want used at startup.

Parameters:

loadPaths - to specify where to look for Ruby modules.

Returns:

an instance

initialize

public static Ruby initialize(java.util.List<java.lang.String> loadPaths,
                              RubyInstanceConfig config)

Get an instance of a JRuby runtime.

Parameters:

loadPaths - additional load paths you wish to add

config - a runtime configuration instance

Returns:

an instance

newObjectAdapter

public static RubyObjectAdapter newObjectAdapter()

newRuntimeAdapter

public static RubyRuntimeAdapter newRuntimeAdapter()

terminate

public static void terminate(Ruby runtime)

Dispose of the runtime you initialized.

Parameters:

runtime - to be disposed of

invokeMethod

public static java.lang.Object invokeMethod(Ruby runtime,
                                            java.lang.Object receiver,
                                            java.lang.String method,
                                            java.lang.Object[] args,
                                            java.lang.Class returnType)

Convenience function for embedders

Parameters:

runtime - environment where the invoke will occur

receiver - is the instance that will receive the method call

method - is method to be called

args - are the arguments to the method

returnType - is the type we want it to conform to

Returns:

the result of the invocation.
