Hi,
I was wondering if there was a version of JNI that would communicate
with Ada83 programs.
I found AdaJNI, but that is an expensive comercial package. Are there
any freeware versions out there? I dont need anything as fancy as AdaJNI
either, just a way to Java and Ada to pass objects. I would use and Orb,
but the project calls for JDK 1.1.5 :(
Please reply both to group and email
thanks,
-Dave

Hi, Dave.
I've written JNI bridge code for Borland Object Pascal (Delphi). I've
never used ADA but it is also pascal-related, I think. My code might be
a good starting point for you -- though I don't really know. You can get
to the download page via the link in my sig.
(If you do get it working, I'd like a copy of the ADA version. Hey,
fair's fair.)

How much of JNI do you need?
I have been working on this very thing, but only have a tiny bit done
- enough to invoke a JVM, find a class and invoke a static method.
I am also working on a binding to the Java library,
(my real motivation is have all those API's available to Ada).
and wanted to sort that out before I release my JNI code.
(there is also zero doco).
I was planning on GPL.
Unfortuneately I don't have time to do more work on it until late November.
Oh, I just realised you want Ada 83.
My code is intended Ada 95 (as is AdaJNI).
However the lowest level is just a wrapper around the JNI C interface,
so you could probably replace all those pragma conventions with whatever
your particular Ada 83 compiler requires for interfacing to C.

Check out AdaMagic at Intermetrics, they do Ada<->Java.
