Hi Jython-dev, This is mostly a question related to Jython/PyPy... I remember some time ago there was some talk about getting PyPy to run on JVM and I remember some talk about it in Jython-dev, so, I was wondering if anyone from Jython-dev took a look on using PyPy on JVM? I'm mostly looking for some experience/possible pitfalls before trying to run it myself :) Thanks Fabio |

There was once a backend for PyPy that translated the RPython interpreter code to JVM Bytecode, however this backend has since been discontinued.

If I remember correctly I think one of the issues was that the jvm backend was just that.. a runtime backend. There was zero interoperability with java code or anything else on the jvm and there were no plans at the time to develop that integration with java. I think that is why interest faded away. That, in essence, would have become a Jython competitor.

As for becoming a Jython competitor, I agree (from what I remember from that time, the idea was that Jython devs joined PyPy devs and the actual supported version would be the one based on PyPy). But it seems it didn't go through... well, C'est la vie :) Best Regards, Fabio |
