Calling Mono Assemblies from Java

Question

I have a large text proofing framework written in C# and I want to write a OpenOffice extension that uses this set of libraries. My prefered language for doing so is Java. Hence, I need a method to access .NET assemblies from Java (both in Windows and Linux). Is there a way to call Mono assemblies from Java?

IKVM should allow you to do what you want but I must admit that I haven't done this myslef.

Here's a link to their project: http://www.ikvm.net/

And a simple java program that calls the .NET API

import cli.System.IO.*;

public class ShowDir{

   public static void main(String[] args){
       String[] files = Directory.GetFiles("."); //.NET System.IO
       for(String file : files){
           System.out.println(file);
       }
   }
}

More useful info.

Thanks, it can solve the java-mono interoperability in general, but ikvm is not a valid JRE to be used with openoffice.org (or it is but I cannot get it to work) – Mohammad Hedayati Jan 20 '13 at 09:17

This looks like a duplicate of: howto call c# (mono , .net) methods, delegates from native c

You can use JNI to execute some native c code to get in through that API.
