[Jython-users] os.environ not implemented?

[Daniel L. <da...@br...>]

I tried with both Jython 2.0 and Jython 2.1a1, and I get the following:

Jython 2.1a1 on java1.3.0 (JIT: null)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.environ['path']
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in ?
KeyError: path

Then just to check:

>>> os.environ
{}
>>>  

Is it unimplemented or is my installation corrupt or incomplete?

Here is how Python 2.1 that installed from source works:
Python 2.1 (#1, 04/28/01, 16:09:19)
[GCC Apple DevKit-based CPP 6.0alpha] on darwin1
