This is a very preliminary release of CamlJava, an OCaml/Java
interface based on the following schema:
Caml/C interface JNI (Java Native Interface)
Caml <------------------> C <-----------------------------> Java
Currently, CamlJava provides a low-level, weakly-typed OCaml interface
very similar to the JNI. Java object references are mapped to an
abstract type, and various JNI-like operations are provided to allow
Java method invocation, field access, and more. A basic callback
facility (allowing Java code to invoke methods on Caml objects) is
also provided, although some stub Java code must be written by hand.
In the future, a higher-level, strongly-typed interface will be
provided, whereas Java classes are mapped directly to Caml classes.
This raises fairly delicate type mapping issues, though, so don't hold
your breath.
