BeanShell
open-in-new
<p>BeanShell is a small, free, embeddable Java source interpreter with object scripting language features, written in <a href="/facts/Java_/9ScgFyAL">Java</a>. It runs in the <a href="/facts/Java_virtual_machine/l9Nzrsun">Java Runtime Environment</a> (JRE), dynamically executes standard Java syntax and extends it with common scripting conveniences such as loose types, commands, and method closures, like those in Perl and JavaScript. </p>
