I guess that to basic technologies of Zope, ExtensionClass and Aquisition, are not ported to JPython.
Did anyone try to compile Zope with JPython?
I almost tried to do that. Actually, all I want is the object database. I need a java db and I can't find one faster than catsup. I've found a couple faster than molasses and a couple slower, but I'd like one that is quick and wondered if the db suupplied with zope (whose name escapes me right now) is faster. Anyway, I was just about to try that when I got put on another project, but I hope to get back to it.
- portability? not sure if Java is more portable than Python ;)
The only architecture I know that has java and does not have python is PalmPilot.
Just about every embedded device nowadays is claiming java support. For instance, Scientific Atlanta can run it on their set top boxes. I haven't heard any suck claims for python, though I bet the port would be easy. -- --Michael
