[Jython-dev] python interpreter and conditional statements

[J D <jam...@ho...>]

Hi, perhaps you can help.  As a python and jython newbie I am trying to 
embed some jython code into my java program.  Seems an easy way to do this 
is by creating a PythonInterpreter object.  So far, so good.  My problem 
arises when I attempt a conditional statement such as:

String erpFormula = ( "if ( 10 * math.log10( TransmitPower ) > 10 and 
LineLoss + RadomeLoss > 6 ): resultant = 20; else: resultant = 10" );

PythonInterpreter interp = new PythonInterpreter();
interp.exec( erpFormula );

The runtime error is: Syntax error: invalid syntax. Evidentally it chokes on 
the else keyword.

If I remove the else..., it runs correctly.

Any and all help you can provide is much appreciated, Jim.
