[1.1.4] IDE: Jython: Interactive sessions no longer supported --- use an installed Jython

[blkeller]

Sikuli version: 1.1.4, build 2018-08-23_12:18
Platform: Windows 8.1, 64-bit

>java -version
java version "1.8.0_181"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_181-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.181-b13, mixed mode)

I seem to be unable to get a functioning interactive Sikuli session with the latest nightly build. The session starts, but it does not accept any keyboard input. The only way to exit is via CTRL-C. After forcing termination of the interactive session, I can see that all of my attempted input is actually fed as input to the Windows command prompt instead of Sikuli, though this is hidden until the Sikuli interactive session is terminated.

Resulting output:

C:\SikuliX\1.1.4~nightly20180823_1218>java -jar sikulix.jar -i -d
Hello, this is your interactive Sikuli (rules for interactive Python apply)
use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to walk through the input history
help()<enter> will output some basic Python information
... use ctrl-d to end the session

[The session hangs here regardless of keyboard input, except until CTRL-C is pressed.]

Made it a bug on Launchpad.

[RaiMan]

the feature is cancelled.
if you need it:

• install a valid jython
• run it from commandline
