Edit and Continue Debugging

Hi together,

I'm not using the Jython, yet it is related work for my academic research on python. I couldn’t find much on this by googling, so I decided to ask here (to avoid stating things that are not true):

1) Does Jython support some kind of Edit-and-Continue workflow?
2) Could I somehow modify a method in Jython while the debugger is paused and then restart the stack frame to step into the modified method?

Background:

In a halted debugger, I might want to modify the current method, reload it into the vm and then continue debugging without needing to restart the application ("Edit and continue Debugging“).

To do this, the .NET, JVM, JS, and Smalltalk vms provide a feature to restart the current frame with the modified method.

We implemented this workflow prototypically in CPython.

Thank you for your replies,
Bastian
