i don't know anything about the PSSE system, but i'm confused. is there a
PSSE server that you communicate with over a socket to make the API calls?
the traditional API model is that there is a long running "server" process,
and the client (in this case the web2py server) connects to some socket and
invokes the API calls. is this what you are doing?
or is what you are doing using a PSSE python lib to connect to some PSSE
server? in this case you should be able to use the PSSE lib from within
web2py. perhaps you just need to run web2py using the version of python
that the PSSE lib requires (i use web2py on python2.5 all the time for
google app engine apps that i have not yet upgraded to python2.7, it's
still supported!)
hope that helps some!
