Hello... ~:o)


..we are a small programmer firm in Germany and have to develop a software solution, which must be able to run on both, Windows and OS/2-Clients...


...now we are interested if some essential features are supported in Java :

Thanx to all who want help us.


Our questions :


1. Is printing possible with Java ?

2. How about loading fonts ?

3. Is it possible to load DLLs (written in C) with Java-Applications ?

4. Is it possible to load DLLs (written in C) with Java-Applets ?

5. Is it hard to connect a Java-application with a running Windows-Server ? (Microsoft Internet Information Server IIS)


Thanx in advance. Bye, Torsten.

Hi! Torsten,


For your questions

3 & 4


Yes, It is possible. Refere to Java Native Interface topic in Java tutorial


The way we can do is by calling the 'load' function as follows.


System.load(DLL Name as String);
