Pyjnius: Accessing Java classes from Python

This is pretty much a perfect example of when to leverage import hooks.

Interesting. It would be great to see some docs touching on pros/cons vs jython, jpype, etc<p>I for one am interested in keeping everything in cpython if possible. But I currently have a web service in jython...

Looks good!<p>Has anyone tried this for accessing a Java Socket API? (e.g. Interactive Brokers API) Im currently using Jython but would love to switch to "real" Python, unfortunately i am still a noob when it comes to get these things working..

what's wrong with JCC?<p><a href="http://lucene.apache.org/pylucene/jcc/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://lucene.apache.org/pylucene/jcc/index.html</a><p>i have used it a lot to generate JNI bindings for other code via a simple Makefile template (list JARs and packages, alter names and versions, and poof). it works quite often, but it does run into some wonky C++ code it can't quite figure out.<p>still, pretty easy. one example are some (work-private) mahout bindings.

Does this mean we now have a convenient way to speak JMX from python? That would be very handy!

How are generics handled?

How does it handle the two types of exception?

Very promising, thanks for the great work!
