[Jython-dev] autoloading site.py

[Robert W. B. <rb...@di...>]

I just added a FAQ entry and had second thoughts about it's
accuracy...

The registry key python.path appends the value *before* it appends
sys.prefix/lib.  While appending to sys.path in autoloaded site.py happens
*after* sys.prefix/lib.

Q1- This is intended behavior? (I assumed so, just checking because there
isn't an obvious counterpart in CPython.  Both *.pth and site.py append
after sys.prefix/lib.)

Q2- Is the python.path key obsolete in the registry?  The lib does come
with Jython, and site.py is autoloaded- what more could people want?  


Note: a search:replace with JPython:Jython on the registry file would be
good- attached in case it saves any work (from 20001205 nightly CVS).

Thanks,

Robert
