[Jepp-users] java signature for overriding python methods

[James M. <jam...@gm...>]

In java, I would like to create an object which has the __getitem__ defined
so that in python I can interact with this class with the [] notation.
 Similar to the following...

public class Asdf {

public Object __getitem__(Object arg) {
return "5";
}

public Object __getitem__(int arg) {
return "4";
}
}

Then in python file, I can do...

fromJava = Asdf()
print fromJava.__getitem__(4)
print fromJava[4]

the call to __getitem__ works, but the call to [4] does not.

I imagine I just have the signature wrong, but I am unsure where to look to
get the correct signature.  Does anyone know the answer, or have a better
place I can look to find it?

Thanks,
