Hi All

I am working with a WebDev application - and I need to interface with a B2B communications API.

The API is Java based (which also has a C based DLL wrapper for the Java functions - the method used in our WinDev [Windows] application).

I was hoping to load the DLL [loadDLL on server code] on the application server, but this appears to be either not possible - or too difficult - due to the many dependencies of this communications api.

So - I am about to start investigating using the JavaLoad and JavaExecuteFunction functions on the server code.

My basic questions are - has anyone implemented something similar? If so, are there any caveats or tips that you can share for WebDev Application > Java API ?

TIA for any advice or feedback.

Regards,
Derek

Yea -I think the available Java functions (e.g. JavaExecuteFunction) are not sufficiently adaptable to interface a windows web application with a Java API (e.g. vector parameters etc.)

Looks like I will have to create a completely new webservice application for this.

Sigh! More work.
