Interoperating with isCOBOL : isCOBOL and Java
isCOBOL and Java
Calling Java programs or methods
This chapter describes how a Java program can call a COBOL program using isCOBOL.
A COBOL program can call a Java program using the CALL statement as long as the Java program implemenents the com.iscobol.rts.IscobolCall interface and exposes the following public method:
public abstract java.lang.Object call(java.lang.Object[])
Sample programs for this task are installed with isCOBOL in the subfolder sample/is-java/iscobol-call-java.
A COBOL program can invoke any Java method using object oriented syntax or the INVOKE statement.
Sample programs for this task are installed with isCOBOL in the subfolder sample/is-java/iscobol-call-java-object.
