Web Mechanisms to Leverage
- Netscape inline/embedded objects - objects which are transported
as part of an HTML page, but which are controlled by external
applications.
- Interfaces to Java
- Have Java call out to Smalltalk. VisualAge includes interfaces
to allow Smalltalk to be called into from C.
- Have Smalltalk call out to Java. Not sure if call-in is currently
supported in Java.
- Interpret Java code in Smalltalk
- Compiling Smalltalk into Java bytecodes is not practical due to the
strong typing in Java.
