The nsjk2 module misses the point of what Java support in AOLserver means
to the projects here at BNA.  We use AOLserver and Tcl (and now XOTcl) as
the core of our newer web sites.  We are happy with ADP processing and
calling Tcl from ADP pages and have built an entire UI around this model.
(The usability of the programming model is fantastic.)

We would have liked to call certain Java classes from this ADP code base
as if they were Tcl/XOTcl objects.  We do not care about and do not want
to use JSP for the specific applications that we have been told to figure
out.

As useful as nsjk2 is to many people it is not useful to many others.

Do you have any plans to provide a means for standard AOLserver
applications to include calls to a JVM inside AOLserver ADP and Tcl procs?
 Or will we still need to put another Java socket server somewhere and
call that from our ADP/Tcl code?
