I'm happy to announce the release of the second beta in the JPython
1.1 series. JPython is the 100% Pure Java implementation of the
Python language, which provides seamless integration with the Java
platform. JPython 1.1beta2 is compatible with most Java 1.1 and 1.2
JDKs.
JPython 1.1beta2 is essentially a bug fix release to 1.1beta1, fixing
reported problems in the jpythonc tool, other reported bugs and
improving compatibility with CPython. See below for a summary.
You can download JPython 1.1beta2 from the JPython home page. Please

Here's a summary of what's changed since 1.1beta1:
- Updates and bug fixes to jpythonc tool. New registry entries
python.jpythonc.compiler, python.jpythonc.classpath, and
python.jpythonc.compileropts. getopt style long/short option
names (old options are deprecated). New -J/--compileropts
option.
- syncing string object methods with experimental CPython 1.6
string methods. This includes new optional arguments on
startswith() and endswith() and the moving of join() to a method
of the separator string.
- Many other bug fixes and CPython syncs
Enjoy,
-Barry
