Enhancement: Java API from jpylyzer #58

Closed Chlara closed 9 years ago

Chlara commented 9 years ago

Hi Is it possible add a Java API from jpylyzer so that we can use jpylyzer as a module in Java? Thanks! Chlara

I'm aware of two options. First (and simplest), just wrap jpylyzer as a command line tool and invoke it that way. There's not really much of a disadvantage to doing this, unless you really really need to package everything together into a single Java app (rather than install jpylyzer separately).

The second and more complex option is to run the Python code directly from inside the JVM via Jython. This is about the closest you can get to accessing Python code as a Java API, AFAIK.

Hi Andy I will try option one with the new jpylyzer.exe. Thanks. Chlara
