Java bridging

[Peter Bernhardt]

I'm investigating to what extent .NET can 1) consume Java classes, and 2) be
compiled into a Java package to run in a J2EE container. I haven't been
able to find much information on this aside from Microsoft recommendation to
convert Java classes to .NET. Of course, this isn't a practical solution if
you want to program in .NET against a deployed J2EE application.

My initial instinct is that a J2EE app interoperate with .NET via web
services. But I'd first like to find out if this can be achieved more
directly by programming directly in .NET against a Java API.

Any comments or suggestions would be most appreciated. TIA.

Peter,

This is a new product from Borland that might do the trick:

Hope this helps.

Please use .Net Remoting, RMI and SOAP. There is no problem with J2EE
(JBoss) and .Net through SOAP.

Our Java/.NET bridge, JNBridgePro, will solve your problem. It's
faster than Web services (since it's based on .NET remoting), and
allows you to program directly against the Java API.

You can also use it to program in .NET against a deployed J2EE
application.

Please see our Web site at www.jnbridge.com for more information and
to download an evaluation copy, or contact me directly if you have any
questions.

Regards,
Wayne Citrin
