Congratulations, you just reinvented one of the most infamous source
I am trying to access (from Java) a python class that extends a Java
interface. The following program runs fine in the jython console (I
can instantiate Tada, call t.getName() and everything prints
correctly.) However, if I invoke test1() from Java using JSR223, the
returned object is inaccessible

I am trying to read a Pervasive database on a Windows machine from a

I understand that this can be done with a proprietary ODBC-to-ODBC

Is there anyway to do this with existing free/ open source tools?

IIRC the sys and proc virtual file system requires new line at the end
