021/**
022 * <p>
023 * Creates {@link Script}s.  To create a JEXL Script, pass
024 * valid JEXL syntax to the static createScript() method:
025 * </p>
026 *
027 * <pre>
028 * String jexl = "y = x * 12 + 44; y = y * 4;";
029 * Script script = ScriptFactory.createScript( jexl );
030 * </pre>
031 *
032 * <p>
033 * When an {@link Script} is created, the JEXL syntax is
034 * parsed and verified.
035 * </p>
036 *
037 * <p>
038 * This is a convenience class; using an instance of a {@link JexlEngine}
039 * that serves the same purpose with more control is recommended.
040 * </p>
041 * @since 1.1
042 * @version $Id$
043 * @deprecated Create a JexlEngine and use the createScript method on that instead.
