Interface ScriptEngineFactory


public interface ScriptEngineFactory
ScriptEngineFactory is used to describe and instantiate ScriptEngines.

Each class implementing ScriptEngine has a corresponding factory that exposes metadata describing the engine class.

The ScriptEngineManager uses the service-provider loader mechanism described in the ServiceLoader class to obtain instances of ScriptEngineFactory instances. See ScriptEngineManager() and ScriptEngineManager(java.lang.ClassLoader).
