Class Java

java.lang.Object

com.rivescript.lang.Java

All Implemented Interfaces:

ObjectHandler

public class Java
extends java.lang.Object
implements ObjectHandler

Java programming language support for RiveScript-Java.

Note that since Java must be compiled before running, this object macro language is only available at compile-time using the RiveScript.setSubroutine(String, Subroutine) method. Inline Java code can't be parsed and compiled from RiveScript source files.
