Java compatible problems with jython

[manuel aldana]

hey,

i wrote an ant task, which i want to include. but there are problems with java, which cannot find the methods i set.

following jython-script HibernateTask.py:

    
import org.apache....
 
class HibernateTask(Task):
 
    def execute(self):
        "@sig public void execute()"
        print "task started"

method is execute is not recognized by java clients. following line does not compile, it accepts instantiation of HibernateTask but gives name resolved error with call to execute:

public Main{
  public static void main(String[] args){
      HibernateTask ht=new HibernateTask();
      ht.execute();
  }
}

my compiling commands:
$ jython.c bat -a -d -c -j task.jar HibernateTask.py
$ javac -classpath 'task.jar;.' Main.java

i am using jython 2.1 on java 1.4.2_12

another question: the last release of jython is mid 2005, has its development been stopped?

thnx a lot!

Sorry it took me so long to respond to this question. You need to subclass a Java class or interface.

import org.apache....

class HibernateTask(Task):

def execute(self):
"@sig public void execute()"
print "task started"

i am subclassing Task (from ant), therefore i am indirectly subclassing Object. so that should not be the problem.

It's development has been lacking in visible progress but it hasn't stopped. You can follow the events through the jython-dev list, for example.
