For that Rhino invokes the Scriptable.put method which you will need to 
implement as a part of Scripatble implementation. See API docs for that 
class. Note that Rhino always use the Scriptable interface to access 
properties, so providing your own implementation of the interface should 
give you a full control over object properties.
