'dbaseFile' is a Class not an Object. First, you have to create a new 
instance:

dbaseFileInstance = dbaseFile()
dbaseFileInstance.open(myDBFFile)

> From javadocs, the method "open" of "DbaseFile" accepts only one argument.
In Python/Jython the first argument that recive an object function is 'self'. 
In a normal call this argument is send automatically by the interpreter but 
you had tried to do it to the Class directly.
