THE ENTIRE CONTENTS OF THIS DIRECTORY HAS BEEN DELETED. Replacement code is in mozilla/js/src/liveconnect. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This directory previously contained the implementation of LiveConnect, which is the marketing term for the glue between Java and JavaScript that allows each language implementation to access the methods and fields of the other one. This code relied heavily on unpublished APIs to Netscape's Java VM and hence will not work with any other VM. This code has been entirely supplanted by the code in mozilla/js/src/liveconnect, that makes use of the Java Native Interface (JNI), which is JavaSoft's de facto standard way of communicating with a Java VM. (The old code does not use JNI because it predated the existence of the JNI.)
