jpython casting to abstract java class

[Douglas du Boulay]

Well thanks, for providing that example of yours Chris.
It appears that I was struck by the dreaded system path versus 
classpath problem again. 

My directory hierarchy was  
<pre>
top  ----  A  -------parser
    \     *.py src      *.java src
     \                  (parser module)
      \----B
          working 
          directory
</pre>

I had CLASSPATH = A  while working in directory B but 
calling  a *.py source file from A which imported some 
components of my java "parser" package from the A/parser directory.
For some reason in jpython1.1 that must have got loaded via the 
system path, and not via the CLASSPATH as it did for jpython1.0.3.
Moving the parser directory somewhere else and sticking the new 
directory containing it on the CLASSPATH, fixes the problem.

I thought I was immune from this problem by working in directory
B, but apparently I was wrong.

P.S. for the record, the discrepancy arose because the 
PyInstance.javaProxy object was not considered to be an instance of 
the underlying abstract java class I was subclassing. 
Maybe someone will fix that oneday?
