Temporal Color Code: ReferenceError

[Lorenz Maier]

Hi everyone,

The Temporal Color Code Script on latest Fiji fails for me with the error message

ReferenceError: "importPackage" is not defined in <eval>

I can't even find an "importPackage" in the eval.

Best,
- Lorenz

I cannot reproduce -- it works for me.

I tried opening Bat Cochlea Volume, and executing Image > Hyperstacks >
Temporal Color-Code and pressing OK, and all works.

I also tried holding Shift while clicking Image > Hyperstacks > Temporal
Color-Code, which opens the script in the Script Editor, then running it
from there, and that also works.

Maybe try Help > Report a Bug to generate some information about your

Hi Curtis,

the error depends on the Java version executing Fiji. The bundled JRE runs fine. But as Clearvolume complained that it is too old, I removed the ./java folder, so my Java defaults to 1.8.0-b132.

The problem is with Java 8, which removed the Rhino JavaScript engine in
favor of Nashorn, which is not backwards compatible. I fear there will be
many problems with JavaScript scripts related to this change.

I have some ideas on how to fix, but doing so will be non-trivial; I filed
an issue to track progress:

https://github.com/imagej/imagej/issues/116

In the meantime, the lesson is:
- If you need JavaScript, use Java 7.
- If you need Java 8, don't use JavaScript.

Sorry,
Curtis

Hi Lorenz, Curtis,

Try using this another version:

*https://github.com/imagej/ij1-installer/blob/master/app/plugins/Stacks/Time-Lapse_Color_Coder.txt
<https://github.com/imagej/ij1-installer/blob/master/app/plugins/Stacks/Time-Lapse_Color_Coder.txt>*

In the version that comes with Fiji, javascript is indeed used for
retrieving an array of LUTs in the menu. It's a cunning idea, but then from
IJ1.49r, there is a new macro command "getList("LUTs")" to do the same and
does not need to use Javascript for this purpose.

I will later compare these two versions, and see if they could be merged.

Cheers,
Kota
