Strategies for Java, COM, ActiveX, and .NET Interoperability
The majority of enterprise environments today contain mixtures of Java and Microsoft platforms, and there is a growing need for interoperability between these two key technologies. The two main strategies for Java, COM, ActiveX, and .NET interoperability are:
- Web Services
