From IRC:
17:43 wmeissner> sabi: yes - the problem is that the jaffl.jar and
jnr-posix.jar in jython are more recent than the ones in jruby
17:43 wmeissner> well, in jruby-1.4 anyway
17:43 sabi> sure, but the idea would be that jython could use jarjar to
maintain its own copy of jaffl/jnr-posix so it doesn't conflict
17:43 sabi> is there any reason that couldn't happen?
17:44 sabi> or would the native bits conflict?
17:44 * sabi really doesn't know too much about how these things work
17:44 wmeissner> the native bits should be ok ... jaffl might be tricky, it
loads its provider via reflection, so that might break
17:45 wmeissner> and unfortunately, you can't jarjar rename jffi at all, since
it has jni methods
17:46 sabi> yargh. ok.
17:46 sabi> is jffi at least relatively stable? :)
17:46 wmeissner> I'm really not sure why renaming all the stuff in /jni makes
any difference to that bug
17:46 sabi> i think it's causing jython to not be able to find jni any more
17:47 wmeissner> jffi should have a version 1.0 out soon
17:47 sabi> er jffi or whatever
17:47 sabi> so it probably never even tries to load it
17:47 wmeissner> and given that 0.6 has been stable for 6 months or so, I'd
say it should be ok for another 6 ... or 12 .. or more
hopefully
17:47 sabi> ok. so hopefully the next time jruby and jython release,
everything should be good
17:48 wmeissner> yes. I'm trying to round up people to compile the stubs on
$favourite_platform
So hopefully this will be resolved before we release 2.5.2. Sorry about the inconvenience. |
