I have writen a java app to control my serial relay for manythings, and im trying to get it embeded into CF, if any one can think of a really clean way to do this let me know, i currantly have my .class file, i tried converting it into a .exe but the .exe conversion program doesnt use the entire c:\....bin\java to run it so it will not run properly, i've tried creating a .bat file and embeding it, which works but the command window stays open, if i could some how get rid of the command window that would work .. .any idea's? any one embed jave yet? i did search, couldnt find much ... thanks in advance

- I'm an IT major, not a programer, but im tryin'!

You might could try converting it to J# and it might work as a CFPlugin...

or can open Visual Studio .Net go to File --> Open ---> Convert
select Java Language Conversion Assistant and then next
select Directory containing project files
select your files and then complete the wizard.

it will convert your java code to C# then you can compile it and use it easily with CF
good luck

This might work

App: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CMD.EXE
Params: /C START C:\YourApp\YourApp.class

or

Params: /C START /MIN C:\...\bin\java.exe C:\YourApp\YourApp.class

Failing that, knock up a wrapper in autoit that hides any unwanted command windows.

If you double click on the .class file within windows, does it load correctly?

no, even if i point it to "open with" c:\...\bin\java.exe it does not
