RE: [Jython-dev] Why Jython?

[Garcia, M. <mg...@Bu...>]

Wow, where do I start...

Jython is a Python interpreter written in java for use with java.  The
syntax is Python which is much more elegant that java's.  It is extremely
powerful in prototyping algorithms and allows for very fast development
cycles.  You can write almost anything in jython and compile it to java
classes.  For GUI development with Swing it is really cool.  

It is an awesome test bed for testing java applications.  We use it for
testing EJB clients in our enterprise application as well as developing
system algorithms.  As a java developer I'm sure that once you try it,
you'll be addicted as most of us are.  You'll never want to write java code
again.  

Within you java programs you can even embed a PythonInterpreter and call
jython.  Check out the homepage www.jython.org and start messing around with
it.  You won't regret it!

Subject: [Jython-dev] Why Jython?

Hi:

I am new to Jython though I have abt 5 years experience in Java. I am
interested in the usage of Jython. In other words I need to know where I
can
use Jython and why.

If you could shed some light on thi I would appreciate it greatly.

Thank you,
Om
