Per Frank Wierzbicki jython2.2 has been released — this is great news for those of us in hybrid shops (or those who just really like Jython). The new version includes:
- new-style classes
- Java List integration
- PEP 302 implementation
- iterators
- generators
- __future__ division
- support for running on modern JVMs
- a new installer
- ssl and non-blocking support for socket
While you’re checking out a Dynamic language running in the JVM — maybe you should also look at the JVM-Languages google group (on which I lurk) — there’s some awesome, and crazy stuff going on there between the Jython/JRuby/Groovy/etc folks. Alot of brain juice flows.
