[jira] [Created] (NETBEANS-1159) Relicense nashorn parser

Svatopluk Dedic created NETBEANS-1159:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Relicense nashorn parser
                 Key: NETBEANS-1159
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1159
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: javascript - Other
            Reporter: Svatopluk Dedic
            Assignee: Geertjan Wielenga


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.
