Subject: execnet-1.0.0b1: connecting Py2/Py3/Jython interpreters
Hi everybody!
i just uploaded a first public release of execnet,
namely 1.0.0b1 to PyPI. Grab it with easy_install/pip
on your favourite Python environment (also works by
unpacking the tarball with or without plain distutils).
execnet allows to ad-hoc instantiate local and remote
Python interpreters, currently Python2.4, 2.5, 2.6 and
(new) also Python 3.1, Jython and PyPy-c. It works
on Windows, Linux and OSX.
With execnet you can instantiate "gateways" between Python processes,
use "remote_exec" code execution and "channels" to perform
structured data communication. See here for more info:
http://codespeak.net/execnet
Here is a list of changes from the rather internal
1.0.0alpha2 to the now public 1.0.0b1 release:
* added new examples for NumPy, Jython, IronPython
* improved documentation
* include apipkg.py for lazy-importing
* integrated new serializer code from Benjamin Peterson
* improved support for Jython-2.5.1
have fun and let me know if you have issues,
holger
