The Java program would be the client.
The application server would:
a. invoke the inference engine as needed.
b. have call back code that the inference engine invokes as needed.
c. send data back to the java program (using the middleware between
java client and C(++) application server) as required.
The java client, upon receiving a response message via the middleware
would display it, or do whatever it was supposed to do upon receiving
that data....
The only thing you would use the http (web) server for would be to deliver
java code across the wire, along with addressing information for it to
contact
the application server. You would NOT use the web server for the
subsequent client/server interaction needed.
