[REBOL] Intercommunication process between JAVA and REBOL
From: jchapdelaine::datachest::com at: 20-Apr-2001 12:21
Hello,
* The Context *
Our company was founded in 1998 in order to develop a new method of
providing integrated global content and data to researchers, software
applications and other users looking for Data sources on Chemicals within
the context of Health, Environment, Safety and Transportation. The
repository also includes hazardous and controlled substance information,
lists relating to regulatory reporting and compliance management, and data
on other relevant topics.
In order to maintain full cross-platform compatibility, to permit users to
access the application without having to install any software, and to
conform to industry standards, we decided to implement our Online
application as a browser-based Web application using the Java programming
language.
* Our Objective *
Data Integration is one of the most important steps to making the DataCHEST
Online application as useful and powerful as possible. It is a complex
process that is partly a science and partly an art. DataCHEST has developed
a series of sophisticated tools, which assist and automate the integration
process to a large degree. We intent to replace these tools by REBOL
Technology as a service provider to perform all data parsing and
transformation.
So, in this context, we would like to get some clues regarding the best way
to communicate between JAVA and REBOL.
Ideally, the solution should be platform-independent. We would like to get
the capicity to move the REBOL component on a Sun Servers.
Thanks.
