Hi, fellow Jython users. I’m hoping that someone with a better understanding of Jython internals than I can help me out.

 

This question is related to the article “Distributing Jython Scripts” at http://wiki.python.org/jython/JythonFaq/DistributingJythonScripts

 

What I’m trying to do: execute some Django functionality from django.template, and, I hope, package it all up in a jar so that we can use it from an existing Java program. (Why Django instead of something else? Because we use Django for Python, and this is related to making an older, legacy product more compatible.)

 

The test.py script below is a simplified version that triggers the bug I’m hitting.

 

What I’ve done:

1.      copied jython.jar to “jythonall.jar”

2.      copied the various Python packages in Lib/ into the jar – in particular, django.

3.      compiled my test script using jython –m py_compile test.py (results in test$py.class)

4.      Added test$py.class to the jar.

 

Test Results:

test.py:

import django.template

print 'done'

If I run the command java –cp .\jythonall.jar org.python.util.jython test.py, it works as expected and prints “done”.

 

But if I run the command java –cp .\jythonall.jar test$py, I get the following stacktrace. My question is: Why? What do I need to do for it to work?

 

Stacktrace:

Documents\jython_templates\jythonall.jar'

Exception in thread "main" Traceback (most recent call last):

java.lang.NullPointerException: java.lang.NullPointerException

 

BTW, other Django imports work, so I suspect it might be something particular to django.template’s __init__.py.

 

Thanks in advance for any help!
