Calling Java class from VB.net

hello,
may have a need shortly to call a java class from a vb.net web app.
basically the java class would serve as an email creation/sending
function.
i realize this all could be done in .net, but i'm just curious as to
what needs to be set up to make a call such as this.
i realize you can call a java function from sql server and was
wondering if wrapping the call to java from a proc would be an easy
way to go. preferably i'd like to make the call directly from a vb
class

searching the web for this topic did not turn up much information
"call java from vb.net"

did find this response from one site regarding ASP calling Java:
the only way you could call a java object is if it is compiled to a
class and resides in C:<Windows>\Jav a\Trustlib.

Then you can do :

set javaObject = GetObject("java :YourClass")
strResult = javaObject.Your Method()
Response.Write( strResult)
set javaObject = nothing

also found where you can purchase a 3rd party tool, JNBridge - but
looking for a free coding solution, not purchased.

the java classes i would end up calling would only be returning a
value of success or fail, everything else would be handled in the java
class and database.

thoughts on this topic would be appreciated, as always! thanks

simon,

One option is to make the Java class a web service.

You can use Web Services, but if you need higher performance than an
interoperabilit y bridge is the way to go (although not free). Intrinsyc
Software has 2 products which do this - one deploys on the .NET side,
the other on the Java side (so you can use whichever product best fits
your environment).

Access Java from .NET using J-Integra for .NET
