[Jython-dev] embedded compilation of modules

[Stephen S. <ss...@ci...>]

Folk,

I am using Jython as a runtime interpreter embedded in a monitor
system.  The system runs many monitors at a time.  Each monitor needs
its own name space.  Within a monitor there may be a number of modules.
Modules are synthesized at runtime and (hopefully) are not stored as
files in a file system.

I have the following problems:

1) compile a module to a runtime representation (this appears to be done
by imp.compileFromSource which is not a public interface) and save it in
the monitor system
2) install (import) the module into as many of the interpreters as
necessary.

I am assuming that I can create several interpreters with disjoint name
spaces (my experiments seem to indicate that this is possible).

So, any help on items 1 and 2 or on the error of my way will be fully
appreciated.

Thanks
