13.5.5. ScriptingAction

Expand
Class org.jboss.soa.esb.actions.scripting.ScriptingAction
Executes a script using the Bean Scripting Framework, receiving the message, payloadProxy, action configuration and logger as variable input.
  1. The Bean Scripting Framework does not provide an API to precompile, cache and reuse scripts. Because of this, each execution of the ScriptingAction will go through the compile step again. Please keep this in mind while evaluating your performance requirements.
  2. When including BeanShell scripts in your application, Red Hat advises you should use a .beanshell extension instead of .bsh, otherwise the JBoss BSHDeployer might pick it up.
