[jira] [Comment Edited] (NETBEANS-1159) Relicense nashorn parser
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1159?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16894526#comment-16894526 ]

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Reopening this, as the parser used in netbeans was not relicensed. The graal.js parser is not identical:
* it produces a different parse tree
* it lacks support for jsx
So at this time, we only have the work around of having a hard-dependency (try to activate JS functions without the GPL-2 module installed) on com.oracle.js.parser-ba7a8bc42268.jar.
It would be great if Oracle could relicense the graal.js parser from the mercurial repository: [http://hg.openjdk.java.net/graal/graal-js-parser] that way we could integrate it and could later move to newer versions (or not if not feasible).

> The nashorn parser uses GPLv2 with classpath exception, which is not compatible for Apache distribution.
> Since the code was fully developed by Oracle (and is committed in [http://hg.openjdk.java.net/graal/graal-js-parser/file/ba7a8bc42268/graal/com.oracle.js.parser/src/com/oracle/js/parser|http://hg.openjdk.java.net/graal/graal-js-parser/file/ba7a8bc42268/graal/com.oracle.js.parser/src/com/oracle/js/parser),]), it could be possible (for Oracle) to relicense the code to allow distribution.
