Re: Coding in jython

I've been working on a Jython interpreter port (alongside a rhino JS interpreter)...
It's a little tricky however, because these things are all written for Java 5/6 and have to be retrowoven/hacked back to be 1.3 compliant...
The bigger issue, however, is getting java bindings working(which you will need if you want to use anything in WPILibJ) because J2ME does not allow dynamic class loading...something both rhino and jython rely on in their java bindings.
Thus, my rhino intepreter works but it pretty much justs prints stuff for the moment...Jython is a bit more tricky to work with.
