[Jython-users] (no subject)

[Eli A. <el...@ce...>]

Hi. I have inherited a Jython application that makes use of user-defined 
java time series classes. These classes have overloaded operators that do 
pretty much what you would expect. For instance, given a time series x and 
a time series y, x+y returns a new time series with the elements of x and y 
added at corresponding times. These usually work fine.

It would be very useful to be able to define x>y the same way. However, 
when I write my own __cmp__ method Jython ignores it. The results from
x>y
are an arbitrary scalar value, as if I had left comparisons undefined. If I 
call my method directly by name:
x.__cmp__(y)
it works fine. Can anyone explain or point to a likely omission?
Thanks,
Eli
