is _callServer deprecated?

lausser

Hi,
i'm trying to use _callServer which is documented in the API, but i get an error message "Cannot find function _callServer".

var $logfile = _callServer("net.sf.sahi.util.Utils.createLogFileName");
_debug('logfile is ' + typeof($logfile));

It is not officially deprecated but yes it will soon be. You no longer need _callServer

You can now do:

var $logFile = Packages.net.sf.sahi.util.Utils.createLogFileName("abcd");
_alert($logFile);

I am using rhino's excellent capabilities to call java code from Sahi Script.
"Packages." needs to be prefixed to the class's fully qualified name, except for java's core classes (like java.io).
