Jython

Wasn't that without initial capital, ie .respectJavaAccessibility ?
However, you should not need it, see below.

You can use jythonc to put your jython class as a java class
in a/the java package. I'd put all other python code in another python module.

Good luck,

The following works:

package foo;

public abstract class P {

protected abstract void p(String s);

public void invoke_p() { p("invoked"); }

}

Jython 2.1 on java1.3.0 (JIT: null)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from foo import P
>>> class Q(P):
...  def p(self,s):
...   print s
...
>>> q=Q()
>>> q.invoke_p()
invoked
>>>

so we need more info. regards.
