>          Components: core-serialization
>    Affects Versions: 2.1
>         Environment: All
>            Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
>            Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
>            Priority: Critical

> A small script such as this in a BXML file now will not work in Java 8:
>   <bxml:script>
>       importClass(org.apache.pivot.wtk.Button);
>       function isSelected(state) {
>           return state == Button.State.SELECTED;
>       }
>   </bxml:script>
> The reason is that the "importClass" function is not present in the base Nashorn engine, but is provided by a compatibility library: "mozilla_compat.js".
