Using Jython 2.2b1, this form of import

import java
import java.lang

class Backplane(java.lang.Object):
  def performSetup(self, arg):
    "@sig public void performSetup(java.lang.String arg)"
    ... # do something e.g. self.arg = arg

does not provoke the generation of the performSetup() method; you have to do the import as a "from", like this

from java import lang

class Backplane(lang.Object):
  def performSetup(self, arg):
    "@sig public void performSetup(java.lang.String arg)"
    ...

in order to generate the public method in the enclosing class.
