Jonathon Wong commented on OFBIZ-44:
------------------------------------
We don't always need to create tiny little BSH script files. We can always use "<set field="myField" value="${bsh: some java here;}"/>".
As for BSH being loosely-typed, yes that's true. As for BSH being difficult to debug, that's wrong! Without having to re-compile between test runs, you can easily insert debug statements anywhere in a BSH script, on the fly no less.
I usually use BSH first, then migrate it to become a service if I need stuff like ECAs, transaction control, etc.
In conclusion, I think the "call Java in Screen Widgets" thing is already served by BSH.
