FEATURED COMPONENTS
First time here? Check out the FAQ!
Hi, I am doing a technical study about a software. I am checking articles on combining ZK with Python or Jython, I am not expert on both technologies, so could you help me please to know:
1- What should I useto improve performance, Jython or Python ? 2- combining with this language, does we really need to use ZK 6 EE ? what is the advantages, specially when we will not use many frameworks like Spring....?
Thanks
Hi,
First of all as ZK, tomcat, jetty, etc etc are all based around JAVA therefore you should use Jython. In fact I don't think you can use straight Python.
But don't get confused, Jython is Python. It is just that Jython interprets/compiles you Python code into Java classes for execution using a Java Virtual Machine.
You don't need ZK EE edition. Jython works fine with the Community edition. You should use the latest ZK though, so 6.5 is best.
You don't need Spring or any other framework. Of course you can use if you need.
Suggest you look at my Small Talk link text that will show you a complete example.
Note that even though the Small Talk says it works with ZK 3.6, it all works with any version of ZK from 3.6 to 6.5.
We have a number of production sites running that are based on ZK 6.5, Jython and Tomcat. Performance is fine and development time is reduced by (in our estimation) 25%-50% compared to using Java.
