JS/CC is a parser generator for JavaScript and ECMAScript-derivates. It has been developed both with the intention of building a productive compiler development system and with the intention of creating an easy-to-use academic environment for people interested in how parse table generation is done generally in bottom-up parsing. The platform-independent software is entirely written in ECMAScript itself, and combines an integrated lexical analyzer generator with a LALR(1) parser generator.
RHINO-JSC(1) General Commands Manual RHINO-JSC(1)NAME
rhino-jsc - invokes the rhino JavaScript compiler
SYNOPSIS
rhino-jsc [options] file1.js [file2.js...]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the rhino-jsc command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page. It is written according to the html documentation.
rhino-jsc is a start script for the rhino JavaScript compiler. The JavaScript compiler translates JavaScript source into Java class files.
The resulting Java class files can then be loaded and executed at another time, providing a convenient method for transferring JavaScript,
and for avoiding translation cost. Note that the top-level functions available to the shell (such as print) are not available to compiled
scripts when they are run outside the shell.
OPTIONS -extends java_class_name
Specifies that a java class extending the Java class java_class_name should be generated from the incoming JavaScript source file.
Each global function in the source file is made a method of the generated class, overriding any methods in the base class by the
same name.
-implements java_intf_name
Specifies that a java class implementing the Java interface java_intf_name should be generated from the incoming JavaScript source
file. Each global function in the source file is made a method of the generated class, implementing any methods in the interface by
the same name.
-debug, -g
Specifies that debug information should be generated. May not be combined with optimization at an optLevel greater than zero.
-nosource
Does not save the source in the class file. Functions and scripts compiled this way cannot be decompiled. This option can be used to
avoid distributing source or simply to save space in the resulting class file.
-o outputFile
Writes the class file to the given file (which should end in .class). The string outputFile must be a writable filename.
-opt, -O optLevel
Optimizes at level optLevel, which must be an integer between 0 and 9.
-package packageName
Specifies the package to generate the class into. The string packageName must be composed of valid identifier characters optionally
separated by periods.
-version versionNumber
Specifies the language version to compile with. The string versionNumber must be one of 100, 110, 120, 130, or 140. See JavaScript
Language Versions for more information on language versions.
EXAMPLE
Example compiling the NervousText.js applet written in JavaScript. The example is provided in the librhino-java-doc package.
$ rhino-jsc -extends java.applet.Applet -implements java.lang.Runnable NervousText.js
