Jython: The Love Child of Python and Java

A couple of weeks ago, I was working on a Java application that creates directories and files based on the parameters given. This got me thinking about a small logging module I wrote in Python. This module contains different levels for logging that get inserted into a database. The problem is that it was written in Python and that doesn’t mix with Java. It took less than five minutes of Googling, to discover Jython, an implementation of Python that runs on Java. After more research, I learned that I need to install the missing modules for Jython using the.jar file that I installed.
