RE: [Jython-users] Exit statement when embedded jython

[Updike, C. <Cla...@jh...>]

Calling sys.exit(0) raises a PyException that you can catch in your java 
code and then proceed from:

...
      PySystemState.initialize();
      PythonInterpreter pi = new PythonInterpreter();
      try {
         pi.exec("import sys; sys.exit(0)");
      } catch(PyException e) {
         System.out.println("Caught PyException");
      }
      System.out.println("Not dead yet!");

Subject: [Jython-users] Exit statement when embedded jython


Hi All,

I know that sys.exit(0) exits the jython module.
But when that module is runned from within a java program
that embeds the jython interpreter, then also the jvm is
closed, and that's exactly what i want to avoid.

So how can i exit a module without exitting the complete
jvm so my java-app keeps running instead of closing down ?

Best Regards,

Patrick
