Hi,

I'm looking to program my application using the C++ version of Qt4. But for some of the required functionality there aren't any good C++ libraries available. There are however viable Java libraries. Is it possible to write almost all of the functionality in C++ and call needed functionality contained in a Java jar? Do I need Qt Jambi for this or is there another way to do it? Thanks.

Kind regards,

Nick

Possible? I think so - yes, but I surely wouldn't do that unless I really had to. What kind of functionality are you looking for?

I'm looking for a (free) reporting tool that works on Windows, Linux and Macintosh. And Java has on, namely JasperReports. So if there is a way to integrate with it, while still being able to write most of my application in Qt that would be great.

Kind regards,

Nick
