Re: [Jython-users] java.lang.String becomes PyString

[Samuele P. <pe...@in...>]

Maybe you should consider what is really 
happening and consider just to change your
tests:

>>> from java import util,lang
>>> import Cont
>>> c=Cont()
>>> c.set("a")
>>> c.get()
'a'
>>> c.get().__class__
<jclass org.python.core.PyString at 387569>
>>> c.check()
a of java.lang.String
>>> c.set(lang.String("a"))
>>> c.get()
'a'
>>> c.get().__class__
<jclass org.python.core.PyString at 387569>
>>> c.check()
a of java.lang.String

[this behaviour is very unlikey to change]

where Cont is:

public class Cont {

 private Object obj;

 public void set(Object obj) { this.obj = obj; }

 public Object get() { return obj; }

 public void check() {
   System.out.println(obj + " of " + obj.getClass().getName());
 }

}

So yes a java.lang.String becomes a PyString but
also a PyString becomes a java.lang.String when Object
is expected.
