Issue428414

I had the following pattern in my code:

from javax.swing.tree import *
from a import * # java package containing A


class B (A, TreeModelListener):
   def __init__(self):
       A.__init__(self)
       ...
   ... 
   # including methods implementing TreeModelListener


this would cause an 'invalid self parameter'
exception to be thrown at the A.__init__
call for the jythonc compiled code,
but ran under the interpreter.
Creating a separate class for the listener
that just wrapped the B instance solved the problem.

I know that inheriting from multiple Java classes
is disallowed but I think class and interfaces
should be OK since it is supported in Java.
BTW. the jython FAQ is now empty

thanks

A python class can subclass many Java interfaces, even in
jythonc, that's not
the problem. I have tried the supposed failing code, it
works of me.
The point is about jythonc detecting A to be a Java class
and producing
the right 'extends' in the java code: this depends on the
actual settings
at jythonc invokation and yes the support for from _ import
* is maybe fragile.
I close the bug.
