Rather than start any new projects, please consider adding to these existing projects:
C++ (uses STL for collections, exceptions, and provides encapsulation of memory management. Compiles on Windows, Linux, Solaris.) http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/rtl Why you should use this: http://rtl.sourceforge.net/doc (check out the code comparison) Java (uses proper collections, and is reasonably OO - could use an upgrade to Java 5 features. Works on at least Windows and Linux - can't recall if I provided Solaris binaries) http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/joarse COM (automation compatible, uses proper COM collections and error handling, and is also usable from .NET - only 168 kb) http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/coarse As far as I know, these are all very stable. The latter two projects build on the first (they were initially examples of how trivial it is to build APIs for other languages once you have RTL).

One could ofcourse build a wrapper around the existing API using collections and annotations (which I have done just to keep things compatible) but then you'll still be stuck with the jni stuff. I think it would be nice to start some kind of opensource project of some kind for making working with Remedy easier. Maybe an API layer or an alternative API.

The API isn't even OO, let alone equipped with Collections (which was a year 2000 feature) - hence, while a nice Java API would be welcome, it's never going to happen until the Remedy Java API is taken seriously (I include removing JNI in this statement). However. I had heard of an open source Remedy Java API, if you fancy contriburing towards an alternative.1 John Java System Solutions : http://www.javasystemsolutions.com _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are"
