Frank Wierzbicki: On behalf of the Jython development team, I'm pleased to announce that
Jython 2.2 is available for download. See the installation instructions.
This is the first production release of Jython in nearly six years, and it contains many new features:
- new-style classes
- Java List integration
- PEP 302 implementation
- iterators
- generators
- __future__ division
- support for running on modern JVMs
- a new installer
- ssl and non-blocking support for socket
This gives Jython the same set of language features as Python 2.2.
For a more complete list of the additions from 2.1 to 2.2, see the NEWS file in the release. Only the version numbers changed in the code from 2.2rc3 to this release.
Woohoo!!
