ava Specification Request (JSR) 223 defines a set of APIs and a related framework to integrate the Java platform with scripting languages. The APIs are part of the standard library that ships with Java SE 6, so you get free scripting support whenever you run applications on a SE 6 JVM. This also applies to applications built upon the Eclipse platform.
JSR-223 defines various kinds of interactions between scripting languages and the Java platform, including:
Embedding interpreted scripts into Java applications
Modifying and controlling Java objects from within a scripting context
