public abstract boolean javacall

Should a special syntax for calling back into Java object be turned on? The syntax begins with @ followed by fully qualified package name of the class. Now followed by :: and a method in the class followed by its parameters enclosed inside (...). This is the syntax one can use to call run() method of Runnable:

r.@java.lang.Runnable::run()()

. One can also call static methods. Just use:

var ten = @java.lang.Integer::parseInt(Ljava/lang/String;)("10")

Returns:

true, if the script should be scanned for special callback syntax

Default:

false
