| * FormEncode | Genshi ------ Jim Baker and Ariane Paola have played around with Genshi on Jython. Its use of pyexpat is the biggest roadblock. Jython now includes a pyexpat, but it's not fully compatible with CPython's (and doesn't support all the features Genshi uses). |

| * decorator | Ariane Paola made some progress porting TurboGears 2 components to Jython for Google's Summer of Code. Genshi and SQLAlchemy are the most important pieces that need porting |
| Line 25: | Line 32: |
| - Note: decorators aren't currently supported in Jython, however the decorator module doesn't actually use decorators (works on CPython 2.3) * nose - nose requires the optparse (easy) and the compiler module (sort of easy -- compiler requires the parser module, which isn't easy to get). nose only needs the compiler module to use compiler.consts.CO_GENERATOR, maybe jython could provide a broken compiler module that doesn't import parser. * Mako Later down the road: * SQLAlchemy. The [http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/ticket/672 Dialect Refactor II] ticket will need to be implemented to properly support using SQLAlchemy via Jython's DBAPI jdbc driver, [http://jython.org/Project/userguide.html#database-connectivity-in-jython zxJDBC]. Frank Wierzbicki has done some preliminary work on using SQLAlchemy with Jython, info [http://groups.google.com/group/sqlalchemy/browse_frm/thread/d60db24fe1683a41/09320033f406d78b?hl=en&lnk=gst here] |
