Access .NET dll's method using Java code

Question

I have a dll namely product.dll created using .NET. How can I access that dll's constructor or method using Java code.
Is it possible to access without using JNI?

Answer 1

You may take a look at jni4net which allows interoperability between the two. IKVM.NET is another alternative. Yet another option is to expose the functionality you have in the .NET library as a SOAP web service which is interoperable and could be consumed from a JAVA client.
