So the Python VM is running in the same address space as Java.
Ok, so how is JEPP doing this from Tomcat without patching the Tomcat
startup code so that the PythonVM is initialized in the main thread ?
I don't know that it is. What I'm interested in doing is starting a
Python interpreter in Java, then occasionally calling into it to exec
some Python code.
I see. Look at the PythonVM.instantiate() method. It's the one that does the
python equivalent of "from module import blah; blah()".
You could add another method there that does an exec or eval instead.
