#178 Utilize Jython 2.7 when it becomes available
Closed: Invalid Opened by mharmsen.

Closed: Invalid
Reopen Issue

PROBLEM:

The PKI deployment utility currently utilizes Python 2.7 coding standards for installation, and invokes Jython 2.2 (the latest available version as of Fedora 17) as a separate process for configuration.

The problem is that Jython 2.2 is VERY old and lacks a number of handy features (e. g. - logging) found in Jython 2.5.

However, it was recently announced that Jython 2.7 has been funded:

  • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jython

If Jython 2.7 works as advertised AND can rapidly be adopted by Fedora in time for RHEL 7, it should be considered to make the PKI deployment program dependent exclusively on Jython 2.7 such that a single process could be used end-to-end to both install and configure CA, KRA, OCSP, and TKS subsystems.

Jython 2.7a2 Has Been Released (May 30, 2012)

See http://www.jython.org/

we will be moving away from jython.
