Jython: any workaround for the missing array module

[Philip Tsai]

Right; jarray, however, only exposes two methods while the array module
provides a number of useful methods.

In my case, I have a (c)python class that manipulates an array of bits using
array.array('I') structure.  The class uses several array methods such as
tostring() and fromstring(), which do not seem trivial to re-implement in
python or jython....  Would you have any suggestion on how to implement such
array methods (I guss at the end there is always the approach of looking
into the source code and try to port it...)?

Thanks,
Philip
