Has anyone come up with a way to access a JDBC driver from Zope? I have since several JPython solutions but I don't see a way of executing JPython from Zope. Would the best way be to write a Zope/Python DA that opens sockets to a JPython or Java servlet that then talks to the JDBC driver? Sounds like a bit of work.

Wow, that's a novel idea. Using some kind of RMI or RPC you could achieve what you're looking for in perhaps less that 100 lines of Python or Java. However, it would require significant expertise in Python, Java, and Zope, which is a rare combination. Or perhaps you could try XML-RPC. It's easy to use and language independent. Shane
