Issue1383

I am using the Jython 2.5 release posted on SourceForge.
I am embedding the interpreter inside my Java code. 

Code that worked perfectly under Jython 2.2 is now failing with an
ImportError. Jython is failing to find Java-based modules after I import
* from a parent package. For example:

from my.java.package import *
from my.java.package.checks import *
from my.java.package.actions import *

Jython fails with this error message:
"ImportError: No module named checks"

If I instead strip out the * imports and import objects directly from
the modules, everything works normally.

A little more insight into what I am doing: I create the interpreter,
then pass it a string of Python code that essentially loads a
directory/module where Jython plug-in scripts are located. Those scripts
then import java modules available within the current Java process.

Hi tzellman: I know you submitted this bug a long time ago, but if you are still around, if you could upload test (as small as possible would help) that shows off this bug I can take a look at it.

Thanks for responding Frank. I actually just tried 3 different methods of calling/importing python from within Java. You can view what I tested here: http://gist.github.com/286908

For my simple test case, using Jython 2.5.1 worked as expected. :)

I also tried Jython 2.5.0, which, aside from not having the interpreter.compile() method, did NOT work. So, it looks like the problem I was having in Jython 2.5.0 were fixed since then. Jython 2.5.0 gives this error stacktrace:
