vizard and java -> jython?

Hi,

I'm thinking about using a Java program and Vizard together in one application.

The result should bea split screen: On the top the java application that simulates a physics simulation conceptually (e.g. mass, force, acceleration, slope of airtrack etc.) and in the bottom window vizard (a python application) that takes certain values out of the java application and shows the realistic looking result.

E.g. I change the slope in the Java application and see that the slope of the airtrack changes in my simulation created with Vizard.

Questions:

0. Does anyone have experience with that? Examples?
1. Is that possible?
2. What first steps would you recommend?

What about jython? Which version of python does Vizard need? As the speed of Jython is tied very tightly to the speed of the underlying JVM it is about 2 times slower than python which might lead to a problem....

An advantage if vizard works on jython would be that it would work on any operating system.....

Johannes
