Neward on .NET and Java at JavaOne
At JavaOne last month, Ted Neward took a look at how .NET and Java can ‘play friendly.’ As in the past, Neward pointed to the possibilities in using .NET as a front entrance into Java capabilities.
He provided an example of the venerable Pet Store sample application built on the Spring framework, but using an Excel spreadsheet as an interface to access the online store application.
Among other things, he discussed the uses of Excel Smart Tags, which can be used, for example, to take users to a Web page. The Smart Tag List is a part of the Office extensibility model. It can recognize predefined text in a Word or Excel document, and invoke a pull-down menu that can lead users, in this case, to a Web page.
“Using the Smart Tags, no programming is necessary.” Neward explained, “This is light weight integration between these two platforms. I am not making use of any exotic technology,” he said in Newardian style.
