I use an embedded Jython interpreter extensively for the business logic layer of a Servlet/J2ee application. The back end uses, Hibernate to connect to the database, so Jython's JavaBean functionality is very useful for me, vastly simplifying and clarifying my own logic. As an added bonus, it is vastly easier to debug and redeploy a Jython script file into a running system than it is to do the same with a session EJB. -- Sean Blakey Saint of Mild Amusement, Evil Genius, Big Geek Python/Java/C++/C(Unix/Windows/Palm/Web) developer quine = ['print "quine =",quine,"; exec(quine[0])"'] ; exec(quine[0]) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
