JNI Over ATM Network

[Siva Jagadeesan]

Hi everybody :
I am workin in a client server application over an ATM network using the Winsock 2 .
Is there any way i can use the .dll file and write my own java class which will interact with the ATM network .
Even if i use the JNI how can i keep track of the socket which i created with C++(winsock) ... Is there anyway i can have a reference to the C++ object (socket object which i created )
Pls let me know
I really want to use java

Thanx
Siva

You can write a dll that acts as a bridge between your Java app and the C++ dll. You can get a reference to your JNI class and call the native methods which are implemented in this new dll. There's a reasonable coverage of JNI in the Java Tutorial at http://java.sun.com/tutorial.

Dear Jim :
Thanx for replying to me . But I want to know whether i can have a C++ object SOCKET in my java program so i can use the native methods call on it . So i will have only one SOCKET object in my program .
Pls let me know if i am now clear
Thank u
