Welcome

j-Interop is a Java Open Source library (under LGPL) that implements the DCOM wire protocol (MSRPC) to enable development of Pure, Bi-Directional, Non-Native Java applications which can interoperate with any COM component.

The implementation is itself purely in Java and does not use Java Native Interface (JNI) to provide COM access. This allows the library to be used from any Non-Windows platform.

It comes with pre-implemented packages for automation. This includes support for IDispatch, ITypeInfo, and ITypeLib. For more flexibility (in the cases where automation is not supported), it provides an API set to directly invoke operations on a COM server.

Another important feature is allowing full access and manipulation (C-R-U-D) of the Windows Registry in a platform independent manner.

The implementation has been tested on all advanced Windows and Fedora platform(s) and displays upward compatibility from JRE 1.3.1.
