Miklos, You can call Java methods from a C++ program on z/OS. The way you would go about doing that is to use JNI (Java Native Interface). JNI allows Java programs to call native code (e.g. C++ methods), and vice versa. It looks like you'll want the C++ program invoking a Java method (the vice versa).
IBM has a redbook (http://www.redbooks.ibm.com) which delves into this topic at least a bit. Here's the direct link: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg247291.html One of the examples provided is Enterprise (OO) COBOL invoking Java, and that should give you enough information to get going since it's quite similar. (I did a little searching but didn't find a good C++ invoking Java example.) I think we'd all be interested to learn your results, by the way. Sounds like an interesting project. - - - - - Timothy Sipples IBM Consulting Enterprise Software Architect Specializing in Software Architectures Related to System z Based in Tokyo, Serving IBM Japan and IBM Asia-Pacific E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
