To get an impression (also some things that not yet work): ``` stefan@stefan-x200 ~/eclipseWorkspace/JyNI $ java -cp jython.jar:build/JyNI.jar org.python.util.jython Jython 2.7.1b3 (, Jun 27 2016, 16:27:24) [Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server...

@wlievens It's just an example that not everything is working yet. The initializer code of 'FloatFormat' object aborts with some silently caught exception before it can init the attribute 'special_fmt'....

*the presented code works as of https://github.com/Stewori/JyNI/commit/1dd0c6e50fed608574594c06391ea4ff7482a238 **you might notice that float-formatting is somewhat ill-configured; currently I can't tell how this comes, but however numbers are still accurate

Good to hear that with Numpy 1.12 it still works! Regarding Numpy 1.10.4 I am actually surprised that it even imports without error, given that 1.11.1 and 1.8 do not....

As of https://github.com/Stewori/JyNI/commit/f1edab26070cee075f429973ef20f4470e096477 the code snippets from above also work on OSX (more testing required, feel free to do so!).

SciPy requires buffer protocol support. This is not a trivial enhancement, see #26 . I hope to add this support at some time but cannot tell when. Feel free to...
