VB support in Java 6?

Question

I was checking Java language history in wikipedia, and this paragraph caught my attention:

The current version, Java SE 6 (December 11, 2006) — Codename Mustang — is bundled with a database manager, facilitates the use of scripting languages (currently JavaScript using Mozilla's Rhino engine) with the JVM and has Visual Basic language support

What exactly does "Visual Basic language support" in this context?

Answer 1

Don't believe everything you read on Wikipedia.

There are plenty of languages that run in the JVM: Groovy, Jython, JavaScript (Rhino), JRuby. Does this mean Java has "support for Ruby"? Depends on your perspective I guess.
