## Package jdk.nashorn.api.scripting Description

This package provides the `javax.script` integration, which is the preferred way to use Nashorn. You will ordinarily do this to obtain an instance of a Nashorn script engine:

     import javax.script.*;
     ...
     ScriptEngine nashornEngine = new ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("Nashorn");

Nashorn script engines implement the optional `Invocable` and `Compilable` interfaces, allowing for efficient pre-compilation and repeated execution of scripts. In addition, this package provides nashorn specific extension classes, interfaces and methods. See `NashornScriptEngineFactory` for further details.
