Re: Does Beanshell Support Numeric Literals with Underscores?

I did not know you could do that in Java until your email :)  My 
understanding is that Bean Shell was written using an old pre-Java 5 
grammar, so binary integers and underscores are not supported.  This 
particular project is in limbo, but there is at least one Bean Shell 
fork you may want to check out for latest developments:
