Hello,
when there is an 'invalid' .jar file in the classpath from where java can
load classes, but from which the jython package manager cannot determine
packages (other people have told us about similar problems with the jar
utility here), I would nonetheless like to be able to import single java
classes.
The problem manifests as follows (package CH.obj.Libraries.Servlet lives
inside the offending bisonInfra.jar):
[appl|pwe] > jython
*sys-package-mgr*: processing modified jar, 'E:\java\lib\bisonInfra.jar'
*sys-package-mgr*: skipping bad jar, 'e:\java\lib\bisonInfra.jar'
Jython 2.0 on java1.3.0 (JIT: null)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from CH.obj.Libraries.Servlet import ServletSessionContext
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<console>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named Servlet
>>> from java.lang import Class
>>> clazz = Class.forName( "CH.obj.Libraries.Servlet.ServletSessionContext"
)
>>> clazz
<jclass CH.obj.Libraries.Servlet.ServletSessionContext at 7698425>
>>>
For an 'intuitive' Jython user like me, there is no obvious reason why this
import should fail ?
My motto is: Jython can import everything java can load !
With the following lines added just at the beginning of method importFromAs
in org/python/core/imp.java (from the 2.0 codebase):
public static void importFromAs(String mod, String[] names, String[]
asnames, PyFrame frame) {
if ( names.length==1 && asnames.length==names.length &&
asnames[0].equals(names[0]) ) {
// this is a candidate for simple java class import
String packageName = mod;
String fullClassName = packageName + "." + names[0];
try {
Class.forName( fullClassName );
PySystemState.add_package( packageName );
} catch( Throwable t ) {}
}
// rest of method left untouched
// ...
}
the problem above would be solved. These lines do not at all claim to be
perfect, they are thought just to show that it could be done:
[appl|pwe] > jython
*sys-package-mgr*: processing modified jar, 'E:\java\lib\bisonInfra.jar'
*sys-package-mgr*: skipping bad jar, 'e:\java\lib\bisonInfra.jar'
Jython 2.0 on java1.3.0 (JIT: null)

>>> from CH.obj.Libraries.Servlet import ServletSessionContext

Please let me know what you think. Do not hesitate to blame me if this is
...
Have fun,
Oti.
