java可以使用python的库函数,使用python中的java库

I have a python app and java app. The python app generates input for the java app and invokes it on the command line.

I'm sure there must be a more elegant solution to this; just like using JNI to invoke C code from Java.

Any pointers?

(FYI I'm v. new to Python)

Clarification (at the cost of a long question: apologies)

The py app (which I don't own) takes user input in the form of a number of configuration files. It then interprits these and farms work off to a number of (hidden) tools via a plugin mechanism. I'm looking to add support for the functionality provided by the legacy Java app.

So it doesn't make sense to call the python app from the java app and I can't run the py app in a jython environment (on the JVM).

Since there is no obvious mechanism for this I think the simple CL invocation is the best solution.

Sorry to ressurect the thread, but there was no accepted answer...

You could also use Py4J. There is an example on the frontpage and lots of documentation, but essentially, you just call Java methods from your python code as if they were python methods:

>>> from py4j.java_gateway import JavaGateway

>>> gateway = JavaGateway() # connect to the JVM

>>> java_object = gateway.jvm.mypackage.MyClass() # invoke constructor

>>> other_object = java_object.doThat()

>>> other_object.doThis(1,'abc')

>>> gateway.jvm.java.lang.System.out.println('Hello World!') # call a static method

As opposed to Jython, Py4J runs in the Python VM so it is always "up to date" with the latest version of Python and you can use libraries that do not run well on Jython (e.g., lxml). The communication is done through sockets instead of JNI.
