package jdk.nashorn.internal.runtime.options;

This is an option class that at its most primitive level just wraps a boolean or String. However, it is conceivable that the option, when set should run some initializations (for example, the logger system) or carry some other kind of payload, arrays, Collections, etc. In that case, this should be subclassed
Type parameters:
  • <T> – option value type, for example a boolean or something more complex
