java n c++

hi guys, any help plz
jus wonderin whether java commands or functions can be executed in c++ platform or in c....

no, unless you had an engine to use one as a scripting language for the other.

You can pull off running other languages in Java with native.

hi guys,
jeroen, what do u mean use one as a scripting lang for the other? how do i do tt/ sorry i am realli new to this...h

There are was to mix C++ and Java code. One way I am somewhat familiar with is to use a glue like language like Python. You could write some objects in java, others is c++, c, or whatever language, and use Python to glue them together. Here is a link to an article on how Python does it.
There is also a program called Jython that you could use Pythons interpreter embedded inside of java apps.

Code written in other than Java (like C, C++). I mean code written for particular specifications (like Hardware, OS).
