While running java's nashorn javascript engine inside a thread and upon the code
- engine.eval(jscript);
the application hangs. Is there something to do with thread safety? How can one run engine.eval inside a thread or callback ?

I'd assume the javascript does result in an endless loop. – Thomas Nov 12 '18 at 10:49

the jscode is private String hwjs = "print('hello world');"; – mluis Nov 12 '18 at 10:56

Can you post up the whole code snippet? – Mohamed Anees A Nov 12 '18 at 11:01

`private String` is not JavaScript - I'm not sure what Nashorn will do with that – Thomas Nov 12 '18 at 11:05

I found the issue was running in a slim JVM based docker image that didn't had 'nashorn' in it. – mluis Nov 13 '18 at 16:27
