No you can import a java .class file. Just make sure it's on the python path
(sys.path) if both .py and .class files are in the same directory then you
need do nothing... if not then you could add the directory containing the
java class files to python sys.path like so:
import sys
sys.path.append("/path/to/java/class/files")
for more information / alternative suggestions look at :-
