An application can only use one of the two runtime environments at one time, either the Java (JVM) environment or the Python environment. Specifically, each version of an app can only use one environment: you can upload a Python app with a version of "1" and a Java app with a version of "2", though only one version can be the "default" version for the application at one time. If you just want to use the Python language with Java technology, consider using Jython, a Python interpreter that runs on the JVM. We don't yet have the Python App Engine APIs implemented in a way that would work with Jython in the Java environment, though the Python SDK is open sourced so you could make a project of it. :) -- Dan > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
