JavascriptValueConverter (classic-core 9.3.0.0-424 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.pentaho.reporting.engine.classic.core.modules.misc.datafactory.JavascriptValueConverter

All Implemented Interfaces:

ScriptValueConverter
```
public class JavascriptValueConverter
extends Object
implements ScriptValueConverter
```
In case we do not run on a JDK 1.6 from Oracle, the "sun" name-space may not be available. We shield ourselves via dynamic class loading. The javax.scripting API is a nightmare to work with when it comes to converting values in and out of the context of the script.
We have to rely on these hacks to make it work - luckily everyone is either using Sun's JDK or OpenJDK these days (I hope).e
