Hi,
You mean you want to call a method over CORBA or just
a Java method in the same JVM as the caller?
If its later then reflection would give you this.
For examples, look in "Core Java 2", Vol I, Ch 5.
The interface is a bit complex, but the end result is that you can
get a class and a method name and signature (argument and
return types) and invoke that method. That's basically how
JavaBeans are ment to be manipulated by builders.
Hope this helps,
