= Welcome to the Jython Wiki! =

''The purpose of a programming language is to let software developers express their intentions as simply and directly as possible. - JimHugunin''
----

Jython is a Java implementation of Python that combines expressive power with clarity. Jython is freely available for both commercial and non-commercial use and is distributed with source code. Jython is complementary to Java and is especially suited for the following tasks:

 * '''Embedded scripting''' - Java programmers can add the Jython libraries to their system to allow end users to write simple or complicated scripts that add functionality to the application.
 * '''Interactive experimentation''' - Jython provides an interactive interpreter that can be used to interact with Java packages or with running Java applications. This allows programmers to experiment and debug any Java system using Jython.
 * '''Rapid application development''' - Python programs are typically 2-10X shorter than the equivalent Java program. This translates directly to increased programmer productivity. The seamless interaction between Python and Java allows developers to freely mix the two languages both during development and in shipping products.

'''''Important:''' To edit pages in this wiki, you must first create a login account. If the word UserPreferences or Login (and not your name) appears at top of this page, click on it and fill it out first. If you see your name instead or near UserPreferences, then you have already done this step. If you see neither go to UserPreferences and create your account.''' '''''

=== Wiki Attack in January 2013 ===

The wiki was subject to an attack on January 5 2013. Since it was not clear whether user account data was stolen, all passwords were subsequently reset, so you will have to use the <<Action(recoverpass, password recovery function)>> to get a new password.

'''To edit wiki pages, please log in first.'''

See the [[https://wiki.python.org/moin/WikiAttack2013|wiki attack description page]] for more details. If you find problems, please report them to the <<MailTo(pydotorg-www@python.org, pydotorg-www mailing list)>>.

=== HTTPS access to the Wiki ===

We have enabled HTTPS access to the wiki to further enhance security and avoid having to send clear text passwords over the network in order to log in to the wikis.

'''If you have not been using HTTPS links to the wiki login page''', please be advised that your password may have been sniffed on the network at e.g. a conference. It is best to <<Action(userprefs, change it)>> and stop using HTTP links to the wiki login page.
