Using Java classes from VB.Net

[Eric Moreau]

Hi

I have to use Java classes from a VB.Net application. I never did that. How
can I use these classes ?

The Java library was provided to me by FundServ. Anyone know it?

The library is provided as .jar file.

TIA

Hi,

There is the java to c# convertor.

But I don't have the source code of the FundServ library. It is a library
provided as a .jar file by the company.

From what I read from the link you have provided, I think I need the .java
(source code) file. I am right ?

there is also a translator form java byte code to MSIL but they would
recommend translate from source code if at all possible

Recently I've had to interface with a third party application which I
can only access from a command prompt, and I'm basically using (text)
files for passing the data to and fro. I feel a bit 'dirty' doing
things this way, but it works...

Maybe you could wrap your Java classes in an appropriate way so you
could do something similar?


Dim cl As String = "C:\\dostuff.bat"
Dim startInfo As New ProcessStartInfo(cl)
Dim p As Process
startInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
p = Process.Start(startInfo)
Do While Not p.HasExited
' Wait
Loop
