    Methods in javax.script that throw ScriptException
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `CompiledScript` | Compilable.`compile(Reader script)` Compiles the script (source read from `Reader`) for later execution.
    `CompiledScript` | Compilable.`compile(String script)` Compiles the script (source represented as a `String`) for later execution.
    `Object` | CompiledScript.`eval()` Executes the program stored in the `CompiledScript` object.
    `Object` | CompiledScript.`eval(Bindings bindings)` Executes the program stored in the `CompiledScript` object using the supplied `Bindings` of attributes as the `ENGINE_SCOPE` of the associated `ScriptEngine` during script execution.
    `Object` | AbstractScriptEngine.`eval(Reader reader)` `eval(Reader)` calls the abstract `eval(Reader, ScriptContext)` passing the value of the `context` field.
    `Object` | ScriptEngine.`eval(Reader reader)` Same as `eval(String)` except that the source of the script is provided as a `Reader`
    `Object` | AbstractScriptEngine.`eval(Reader reader, Bindings bindings)` `eval(Reader, Bindings)` calls the abstract `eval(Reader, ScriptContext)` method, passing it a `ScriptContext` whose Reader, Writers and Bindings for scopes other that `ENGINE_SCOPE` are identical to those members of the protected `context` field.
    `Object` | ScriptEngine.`eval(Reader reader, Bindings n)` Same as `eval(String, Bindings)` except that the source of the script is provided as a `Reader`.
    `Object` | ScriptEngine.`eval(Reader reader, ScriptContext context)` Same as `eval(String, ScriptContext)` where the source of the script is read from a `Reader`.
    `abstract Object` | CompiledScript.`eval(ScriptContext context)` Executes the program stored in this `CompiledScript` object.
    `Object` | AbstractScriptEngine.`eval(String script)` Same as `eval(Reader)` except that the abstract `eval(String, ScriptContext)` is used.
    `Object` | ScriptEngine.`eval(String script)` Executes the specified script.
    `Object` | AbstractScriptEngine.`eval(String script, Bindings bindings)` Same as `eval(Reader, Bindings)` except that the abstract `eval(String, ScriptContext)` is used.
    `Object` | ScriptEngine.`eval(String script, Bindings n)` Executes the script using the `Bindings` argument as the `ENGINE_SCOPE` `Bindings` of the `ScriptEngine` during the script execution.
    `Object` | ScriptEngine.`eval(String script, ScriptContext context)` Causes the immediate execution of the script whose source is the String passed as the first argument.
    `Object` | Invocable.`invokeFunction(String name, Object... args)` Used to call top-level procedures and functions defined in scripts.
    `Object` | Invocable.`invokeMethod(Object thiz, String name, Object... args)` Calls a method on a script object compiled during a previous script execution, which is retained in the state of the `ScriptEngine`.
