Be advised that deploying on JBoss 5 has an issue in using jython scripts. I created a patch to fix the problem and submitted it to jython development to be implemented. That issue can be viewed at http://bugs.jython.org/issue1639.
In short, the problem is that JBoss 5 introduced the vfszip protocol for jar files which prefixes "SomeJarFileClass.class.getName()" with "vfszip:" versus "jar:file:" (which happens in containers like Tomcat) and jython uses the latter string to obtain the jar filename in order to produce a classpath for jython. That classpath would point to the jar file for python modules, like re.py. When using a macro, like the code macro, you get the error, "ImportError: No module named re". I made a personal fix by applying the patch to jython 2.5.1 source (the patch provided to jython maintainers is for version 2.5.2b1, but might work) and performed a build up to the point where the class PySystemState.class was created. I then did jar -uvf jython... org/python/core/PySystemState.class to update that one class. As a side effect of that command (I guess) I then also had to include jna-posix.jar from the extlibs directory of the jython distro. in xwiki's lib directory. Let me know if you have questions by e-mailing directly (if that's an option). I may not be monitoring this list much longer. I just wanted to let people know about this. _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
