I’m new to Jython/Python world. I’m trying to install the multiprocessing package in Jython. However I’m getting following return message from the easy_install
Setup script exited with error: Compiling extensions is not supported on Jython
Is there any way I can install this package in Jython?
You can’t use it if
multiprocessingrequires C extensions i.e., if you can’t disable them and the module was not reimplemented for Jython in Java/pure Python.multiprocessingmodule is included in the stdlib since Python 2.6. Current Jython supports Python 2.5.There is no GIL in Jython so you can use
threadingin many cases where you would usemultiprocessingin CPython.
