JNBridgePro Now Includes Calls from Java to .NET and Significant Performance
Improvements

BOULDER, CO, November 8, 2002 - JNBridge, LLC, announced today the
availability of a new version of JNBridgePro, a Java/.NET interoperability
tool for software developers, that includes "one-and-a-half-way" bridging
through implicit calls from Java to .NET, and speed improvements that
increase performance by as much as four times.

JNBridgePro is a Java - Microsoft .NET interoperability tool that enables
the calling of Java classes from .NET as if Java were a .NET supported
language. JNBridgePro supports J2SE or J2EE and the leading J2EE application
servers, allowing .NET code to access J2EE facilities including EJBs and
JNDI.

The "one-and-a-half-way" bridging capabilities included in the just-released
version of JNBridgePro expand the previous one-way bridge of enabling the
developer to make explicit calls from .NET to Java, and allow implicit calls
from Java to .NET using callbacks. Callbacks enable both the Java side and
the .NET side to capture events that occur on the Java side. This solution
is the best fit for current Java/.NET interoperability needs, as existing
Java code can be easily incorporated into new .NET applications without
alterations to the Java code, and the Java side maintains its portability
and standards conformance.

"JNBridgePro is a first rate product with great support," said Philip H.
Clem, co-founder of a financial software company. "JNBridge handled
everything I needed to support using a Java based real time market data feed
from C# .NET. That included creating the .NET assemblies with all required
proxies, providing the ability to use callbacks from market data
record/field level subscriptions, and all the data type mapping support
required to retrieve information from the market data feed. I'm up and
running."

Another developer says "I've rebuilt against the latest version, and agree
with you - it does benchmark significantly faster, running more than four
times as fast with my application."

About JNBridgePro

The Java/.NET interoperability capabilities of JNBridgePro enable software
development teams to leverage their existing Java investments as they pursue
new .NET initiatives, and to save substantial development resources in
building applications that span both architectures.

JNBridgePro is available in two versions: SE (Standard Edition) and EE
(Enterprise Edition). The SE version works with J2SE and can run in a
standalone JVM, while the EE version supports J2EE and can be integrated
with any J2EE application server.

Free, full-featured evaluation copies of JNBridgePro SE and EE are available
for download from the JNBridge web site, http://www.jnbridge.com.

Has anybody had experience developing .NET CORBA clients using this product
or someone else's? How about .NET servers accessible from CORBA clients
(Java or C++)? Anybody have a tlbimp-like utility to process CORBA IDL
files and generate .NET assemblies for either server or client?

Hi Alan --

To our knowledge, nobody has used it with CORBA, but it ought to work.
People have used it with RMI.

I'd suggest downloading the product and doing a quick proof-of-concept to
see if JNBridgePro satisfies your requirements.

Regards,
Wayne
