compile, marshal, exec

Hi,

I have a (internal) web app based on zope that uses many python scripts (essentially a function).

I am considering the porting of this application to Tomcat/Jython using pyservlet. In fact, there will be only one pyservlet which gets all requests and processes them according to type, one of this being a python script.

In Python, I could use the following code to process this scripts:

>>> f = file('dateGetYmd') # the script file, which has a namesake function
>>> obj = compile(f.read(), '', 'exec')
>>> marshal.dump(obj, fc)
>>> exec obj
>>> dateGetYmd('0') # this function call will also access local objects

Would this work in Jython? docs would say so, but is there any caveats?

and what about performance? what does compile return? (python byte codes?)

Or is there a better way to do it?

Regards,
Fernando Martins
