So, we need to figure out how to do this for Windows Python. We really
want Python (rather, the JCC __init__.py file) to look in the Windows
registry and do the right thing with what it finds there (basically,
adding the right location for the jvm.dll to sys.path), before it attempts
to import either "jcc" or "_jcc".
It's not sys.path (that's where PYTHONPATH ends up), it's the env's PATH
or, more precisely, the process's executable search path that needs to be
updated. I don't know of a linker way to do this on Windows. Once the
process has started, my understanding is that it's too late already.
In Chandler, we have a starter process that starts python after setting the
proper search path.
We are setting up os.path in sitecustomize.py (in the embedded python
installation) - pointing to the embedded JVM. So it seems to work in-process
as well. Tested under WinXP/Win2003 Server/Vista.
Oh, this sounds like a better idea. Bill, you're shipping Python on Windows,
right ? In that case, putting this code into sitecustomize.py is simpler
than integrating this into JCC in a safe and deterministic manner.
Andi..
