pyjnius is still not thread-safe?

[pubfox]

Hi, All
I have to invoke a static java method in my task(django-celery) through pyjnius. It works fine for the first task. But it throws exception while executing the 2nd task. Check the jvm log, it shows

Internal exceptions (1 events):
Event: 0.058 Thread 0x0000000001ae2800 Threw 0x0000000704a06140 at /build/buildd/openjdk-7-7u25-2.3.10/build/openjdk/hotspot/src/share/vm/prims/jni.cpp:3994

Seems this is thread problem, right?
How can i fix this?

BTW, misja, can i make it works through gevent?

I seem to have a similar problem. Trying to run a task through celery I get a "VM is already running, can't set classpath" Problem. Do you have a solution for running pyjnius in celery?

the error "VM is already running, can't set classpath" means one of imported packages is using JVM.

so i think there will be multiple lines that imports jnius.

please show your code lines of importing packages

or if there are lines like "import jnius" and "import [package_name_A]"
and if the package_name_A imports jnius inside the package, then you need to remove one of the import lines.

@jun0-ds's solution [i.e. avoid importing the same class twice] isn't a conventional way of using Python.

Importing twice shouldn't lead to problems. It suggests that the jnius module has side-effects on import. I haven't looked to confirm.
