[Jython-users] access to .py's in jars

[Harlan H. <ha...@ot...>]

I have a collection of java class files that I want to add a layer of
python to, to make it look more python-like.  for instance, a bit of
python code makes my java class act like a python dictionary.  

what i want to do now is bundle it all into a jar file...  so, include all
my com/otelnet/.class files, and then include a mymod.py at the root, or a
mymod$py.class at the root, so when I have the jar in the classpath, i can
import mymod

this doesnt work.  I've also tried putting an __init__.py in the jarfile,
and import <jarfilename> but this doesnt work either.

is there a way to do this?

any help is appreciated.
