[Jython-dev] question about jython applets

[Martijn J. <ma...@ea...>]

Hello!


I have a question about jython compiled applets. In the documentation it says
that jythonc compiles python code into java byte code. Why is it needed that
it includes 150K of jython libraries to the java files? This means that 
jythonc doesn't compile to plain javacode, but it compiles a sort of wrapper
which makes it possible to execute pythoncode in a java applet?


thanks in advance.


(BTW : it's really cool that it's possible to combine the python code with 
java-applets!!!)
