Just curious. Are there any java runtime .NET hosts? (which provides api functionality to run .NET classes from inside a running Java app)? More general than just for CF.

You write a CFX in any .NET language and call it through a proxy. You could use BlueDragon but that would mean having to switch over to another server and it would not allow you to run both Java and .NET stuff - it's a one or the other option. Using Black Knight you can leverage .NET with your current installation without giving up one for the other. I'm not bashing on BlueDragon in anyway mind you - I worked on the product briefly for New Atlanta. It's a matter of needs. If you've a Java investment and also need to use .NET then your options begin to narrow a bit. rish ---------------------------------------------- Guy Rish [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gestaltech, Inc. be more... -----Original Message----- From: Neil Middleton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2005 8:06 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: .NET under CFMX Any links for the CFX interface?
