jython: Unable to access jarfile jython_installer-2.5.2.jar

[richard.lynch@…]

I don't even know what all this means, and can't puzzle it out...

I'm using The Grinder, and need re, but their Jython is stripped down without it, so I need to install the full-blown Jython and point to that...

I have never had a good working relationship with Java, nor Python.

Clue bats most welcome if I'm doing something particularly stupid...

[richard.lynch@…]

I have Java 1.6 installed:

chi-mac-rlynch:~ richard.lynch$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_29"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_29-b11-402-10M3527)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.4-b02-402, mixed mode)

[ryandesign@…]

Not to worry; I get the same error message, as did the reporter of #31761.

[jxraynor@…]

I'm also unable to install jython. In the log file, I see this:

:msg:archivefetch ---> Attempting to fetch jython-2.5.2_0+installer.darwin_11.x86_64.tbz2 from ​http://packages.macports.org/jython

The fetch appears to fail, but "port install jython" doesn't seem to care and continues on. When I look on packages.macports.org, I don't see a /jython directory. Could the problem simply be that the package directory (and thus the package itself) isn't there any more?

[dports@…]

Replying to jxraynor@…:

The fetch appears to fail, but "port install jython" doesn't seem to care and continues on. When I look on packages.macports.org, I don't see a /jython directory. Could the problem simply be that the package directory (and thus the package itself) isn't there any more?

No, that just means that MacPorts doesn't provide a binary package of jython (yet).

It looks like the problem here is that the +installer variant is setting fetch.type back to standard, and as of r83471, that causes distfiles to be cleared.

Fixed in r91310.

[richard.lynch@…]

Just in case anybody finds this thread, and is trying to get the Jython 're' instead of java.util.regex...

Don't bother.

It's over 500 X slower than the java.util.regex suite.

Yes, really.

See benchmarks from myself and another in this thread:
