I've submitted it under tools/javac - there was really no subcategory of
tools that even remotely matched Nashorn, so I hope it gets to the right
place ;)

Hi,
Please use "tools" category and include scripting/nashorn in your
description or title or label somewhere.
PS. we are working on getting appropriate category.
Thanks

as directed in the link your provided, but I can't see any category I
can file it against that seems appropriate for Nashorn...

Hello Nashorn folks,
I've been playing around with Nashorn today, and in particular
I've been trying to implement commonJS-like require()
functionality, but having some problems. Most probably I am doing
something stupid...
I'm sure you all know, with commonJS modules you can "require"
them from your JS scripts, e.g.
var someObject = require("modulename");
Then in modulename.js
you do your stuff then export the object that ends up being
returned from the require, e.g.
var someObject = {
foo: "bar"
}
module.exports = someObject;
One key thing is that modules have their own scope, so any globals
defined in modulename.js shouldn't be visible in the script that
requires them, and vice versa.
While trying to implement this using Nashorn and running scripts
in different scopes I've found it's possible for Nashorn to get
confused about what scope it's using, and for scopes to leak from
one to another.
I created this simple runnable example to demonstrate the issue.
I wonder if anyone can advise whether this is a bug, or perhaps I
am using the API incorrectly. If the latter, could you advise on
the proper way to use the API to implement this kind of
functionality.
Many thanks
