There should be various ways to do it.  Depending on what you are trying
to do.  But be advised that nothing will really work perfect as MS is
anti-java right now.

- You could write an XML bridge.  This is probably something I am going
to be doing in the near future.

- You could use WebLogic (or another app server that supports COM) to
call a DCOM method through RMI.  The only problem with this is that your
app server has to be running under JView.  This would mean that you have
a 1.2 JDK calling an RMI method on a 1.1 JView JDK.

- JNI.

- DCOM wrapping Java2.  On the NT platform the Java hotplug is a COM
object.  Therefore you should be able to write a COM/DCOM object that
uses Java2 just like another object.  The only problem is that I am not
sure how effective this will be.  I am not sure you could call a method
on the Hotplug hosted beans.
