If you run Rhino under JDK1.2 with a security manager:
java -Djava.security.manager=java.lang.SecurityManager
org.mozilla.javascript.tools.shell.Main
Then reflection fails for objects that are in a restricted access package
(e.g. sun.*). Rhino is reflecting based on the dynamic type of the object
instead of the declared static return type.
In this example, createImage is declared to return java.awt.Image, but it
returns sun.awt.image.OffScreenImage. Attempting to reflect this class
results in a java.security.AccessControlException for
java.lang.RuntimePermission accessClassInPackage.sun.awt.image.
Here is the script. You will need to type it in because you won't be able
to load it from a file due to the security manager.
var f = new java.awt.Frame();
f.setVisible(true);
var i = f.createImage(10,10);
