Calling java from C#

How to call java within c#?. It would be helpful if we know the steps to use java code in C#?

If you are talking about directly using Java code from within a C# application, you might want to look at JNBridge. http://www.jnbridge.com/[^] I've never used it and I have no idea how much it costs, but it has a good reputation. It seems to do the job pretty well from what I can gather. If you are talking about reusing functionality but don't need direct integration then it might be easier (and cheaper) to write a wrapper that lets you talk between the two components, e.g. a web service or a call through a TCP socket or something like that. It depends what your requirements are.
The requirement is here. There are two methods available in java. Zip(string sourcefolder, string targetloction, string zipfilename); UnZip(string zipfilename, string targetfolder); We need call these methods from C#. Is there any ways to achieve whitout using JNBridge /3rd party?

You have a number of options: - use third-party tool like JNBridge or IKVM or similar - use a web service or other cross-process communication - write your own wrapper DLL using JNI I have no idea what your Zip/Unzip methods do, but one option (which I am sure you have considered) is to bite the bullet and rewrite them in C#. If the Java functionality isn't too complicated, this would be my preferred option if it was my project. Don't forget, you will need a JVM up and running in order to call the Java methods. They will not run natively in .NET.

Why don't you try some zip libraries for .NET? E.g. ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll. I'd rather look for .NET alternatives than try to deal with the problems of running java code from C#. Another alternative would be to write a java "executable" which you can call with

Trying to avoid 3rd party libs. If no solution available then we may need to use 3rd party libs. Do you know any sample code that explains about writting wrapper DLL using JNI to call Java?
Why are you doing this? There is no point in writing a C# program that requires a Java library since you have to cross too many boundaries (managed -> unmanaged -> JVM) to make it work. Write your library in C# and do it the easy way.

In java and only in java. 1. Wrap the java code in a java exe framework (so it can be run at the command line with 'java') 2. Add a communication layer (sockets, files or stdio) written in java. 3. Test the above. In C# and only C#. 1. Use Process to run the above 2. Write code to talk to the communication layer of the above. Benefits. A. Java code is all java. B. C# code is all C# C. No reliance on third parties. D. Unit testing can be done without relying on the other language.
