How to identify arguments object as Value? #34
Comments
I don't think you can detect whether an array is in fact the arguments array, but you may detect that it is an array. This is how you can check for an array: public static void main(String[] args) {
try(Context ctx = Context.newBuilder().arguments("js", new String[] {"arg0", "arg1"}).build()) {
Value arguments = ctx.eval("js", "arguments");
System.out.println("getMetaObject().toString(): " + arguments.getMetaObject().toString());
System.out.println("hasArrayElements(): " + arguments.hasArrayElements());
System.out.println("string array(): " + Arrays.toString(arguments.as(String[].class)));
}
} This prints:
I'd recommend to use hasArrayElements as it is language agnostic. Does this help? (feel free to close if it does) |
What I'm after is the
It prints:

I tested another variant:
And it prints:
Hooray! :) Can I obtain that value in Java land without executing JS? |

I'm afraid that's the only reliable way to identify if something is an arguments object currently. You can of course do something like this:

I'm trying to migrate a big Nashorn application to GraalJS. One of the things the code does is convert a JavaScript value to a Scala/Java value. An
Arguments
object is detected and converted to an array in Nashorn like this:I haven't succeeded in testing if a
Value
isArguments
. My test method looks like this:And I'm calling it like this:
This is the printout:
Sadly, neither
type
norclassName
are useful here.Any suggestions?
