Deprecate for removal the jrunscript tool

XMLWordPrintable

    • b21

      The JDK ships a "jrunscript" tool which as per its specification has been an experimental and unsupported tool https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/23/docs/specs/man/jrunscript.html.

      This tool, by default, is no longer functional since several releases due to the removal of the JavaScript engine from the JDK.

      In the recent releases (as old as JDK 17), when this tool is launched, it prints the following message and exits:

      $> jrunscript
      script engine for language js can not be found

      The tool should be updated to print a deprecation for removal message in preparation for removal in a future release.
