I am getting the error message (see subject) for the following code on line
14. If I comment out line 14, the program runs properly. Obviously, this is
java 6. Should I not have the for each statement from Java 5 in Java 6?
As I understand it, the scripting stuff is unique to java 6.
Thanks,
Siegfried
1 package helloWorld;

3 import java.util.Iterator;
4 import java.util.List;
5
6 import javax.script.*;
7 public class EvalScript {
8 static java.io.PrintStream out = System.out;
9 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
10 // create a script engine manager
11 ScriptEngineManager manager = new ScriptEngineManager();
12 // create a JavaScript engine
13 List factories = manager.getEngineFactories();
14 for(ScriptEngineFactory factory : factories){ }
15
16 ScriptEngine engine = manager.getEngineByName("JavaScript");
17 // evaluate JavaScript code from String
18 engine.eval("print('Hello, World')");
19 }
20 }

Sounds as though the compiler is asserting Java 1.4.x compliance. Right
click the project in the Project Explorer, select Properties, then Java
Compiler, and see what Java Compliance is set to. If it's 1.4, you can
check "Enable project specific settings" and set the compliance level to
5.0 or 6.0. You can make that the default for new projects under
Windows -> Preferences -> Java -> Compiler.
