You may get more responses asking this on Apple's WebObjects
Development mailing list.
There are a *bunch* of ways of calling external code from a Java
WebObjects application:
Web Services
you could write an Objective-C application that uses the Search kit
API to search what ever it is you want to search for and expose a web
services interface to your Objective-C application
Java Native Interface (JNI)
The Java Native Interface can be used to call 'non-java' native code
Java's Runtime.Exec method
This method can be used to call an external process
The Java Bridge as you've suggested.
However, you might want to look at Lucene. It is a Java library for
indexing and searching and I've found it pretty straight-forward to
integrate it with WebObjects. As it is Java it has the added benefit
that your WebObjects application will still run on non-Apple
operating systems.
Cheers,
Jake
