This might be a suggestion which could lead to a very different mindset when it comes to programming -- why not just implement the mathematical function in pure Java instead of calling the function in MAPLE? Since you already know the implementation of the function (which can be converted almost but not always trivially to any other programming langurage), then you'd benefit from a great performance gain and save yourself from the dependency on MAPLE. Another thing is if you need mathematical methods and classes, there are a lot of libraries out there which might fit your needs better than just implementing it in MAPLE and calling it in Java. It will save you both time and effort by using other people's code which is already in abundance out there. "Hindi nakakabawas ng pagkalalaki ang pag-gamit ng libraries ng ibang tao..." :D HTH Btw, I don't think the PLUG list is the best venue for this discussion unless you need to implement your Java program with Linux specific functionality (which IMO, shouldn't be in java if you intent to make it platform specific and FAST). /me loves C++. -- Dean Michael C.
