Phython and Java program communication

[jameelh]

Hi Guys

1.) Is it possible to create a Phyton program without UI, sort of like a background app/service?

2.) Is there a way to communicate to this Phython program from a Midlet?

Thanks for your thoughts.
Cheers

I think you can use tcp/udp sockets to connect to 127.0.0.1

That is hardly idea solution for many things, but it is better that nothing.

e32.start_server() may be what you need. Check the API Reference PDF file for more details on it.

I saw an example in the PDIS distribution.
see the file.
pdis-0.7.2/symbian/ao-socket/test-programs/test_http_server.py

I haven't test it yet myself.
you need to install the file "aosocket-sereis60_v20.sis" before, though.
