Hi:

Can anyone suggest some website or simple code for how to integrate
Visual Basic with Java. For example if I want to invoke a java class
from a VB dll and pass some parameters.

One usual method would be Shell(java -options myclass parameters). But
in this method there is no way to have the returned parameter.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Caesar

Have you looked at Microsoft Virtual Machine for java?
I have used it long time back. We would need to compile the java classes using Microsoft VM and generate the required .tlb and other files to integrate.

Hi Arun:

Thanks so much. If you could recollect then kindly let me know the
steps. Since I am a VB developer, I find this Java technology
extremely difficult and confusing.

Best regards,

Caesar
