== What is JavaFX Script (merge with F3?)==
So, I'm not the only one who hasn't got a clue what JavaFX Script is? [[User:EAi|EAi]] 21:11, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

:I've rewritten that paragraph from scratch. It was rather sloppily worded, perhaps written in hast. Firstly, it suggested the Visual Basic syntax is declarative, with binding. I'm no a VB expert, but does the syntax itself support these things? I Googled around and there's no mention of them. Is this a true like-for-like comparison? Secondly, it compares a language syntax with a series of Swing API calls. The way it was worded it gave the impression that Swing has a language syntax unto itself. Apples and oranges. I'm not suggesting the things I removed had no place in the article, just that I strongly suspected the wording was ambiguous and misleading. [[User:JavaKid|JavaKid]] 16:08, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
::VB doesn't have a declarative syntax, no. In the background, there's some vaguely declarative stuff for building forms, but nobody ever modifies these files manually, you purely use the IDE. VB is a functional and OO language really. [[User:EAi|EAi]] 02:44, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
== List of other Java scripting languages necessary? ==
Is it really relevant to have the likes of BeanShell, Jython and JRuby (not to mention Ajax) in the 'See also' section? What relationship do they have with JavaFX which makes them worthy of note here? JavaFX and JavaFX Script are '___domain specific', and not general purpose tools. Before the list starts to grow to include every possible variation of scripting language, perhaps it should be pruned to just direct competitors and closely related technologies (eg: Swing is just about okay IMHO) ???

== Style ==
This reads like it has been copied directly from the JavaFX documentation or something, especially the Prerequisites section, which I think could even be removed completely if noone wants to rephrase it.

== Is JavaFX Script fully open source? ==
I know that javafx compiler is open source, but scene graph element isn't atm. scenegraph.dev.java.net holds old version of it. I think it should be clearly mentioned in the article. Maybe javafx compiler being OS makes JavaFX Script open sourced and scenegraph is not a part of JavaFX Script, but part of JavaFX rather? If someone could clarify...

'''JavaFX is NOT a scripting language:'''
{{Cquote|
Even though it is called JavaFX Script, JavaFX is NOT a scripting language (in the dynamic sense). JavaFX code gets compiled to Java bytecode at design time. So, JavaFX is similar to Flex (except for the XML-UI part). Note that JavaFX started as a scripting language in Sun Labs, but quickly became a compiled language (probably for performance reasons). Sun keeps using the term “JavaFX Script” to distinguish the language from the JavaFX brand and to avoid using the word “language,” which would make it too obvious that JavaFX is another language all together.
[http://java.sys-con.com/node/994363 Ellison at JavaOne: Myths About JavaFX, Android, and J2ME]}}
It is described as a "compiled, statically typed, declarative, scripting language".
Is this then a paradoxical statement? I would have thought that 'compiled' and 'scripting' are mutually exclusive. But perhaps my definitions of those terms is not accurate. I thought that scripting means read at run time - ie interpreted.
So I agree with the blockquote above. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/80.4.250.229|80.4.250.229]] ([[User talk:80.4.250.229|talk]]) 18:16, 21 March 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:I disagree. JavaFX Script is separate from the other functionality that JavaFX provides (cross-platform UIs focusing on mobile, for example). This article, documenting that Oracle is discontinuing JavaFX Script while moving JavaFX to a purely Java API further proves my point: http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/JavaFX-Script-is-dead-long-live-JavaFX-1082823.html --[[User:Rehevkor5|Rehevkor5]] ([[User talk:Rehevkor5|talk]]) 16:19, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
