Use AIP to call FP from a JAVA application

Hello,

 

 

I was wonderng if the FP API is suited to build a JAVA application to call FP once that JAVA app is downloaded to a user's machine. We're looking a modifing a customer's JAVA app so that when a user requests the app thru a portal the app is pushed to the user's desktop and fired where it builds a followon ssl tunnel and exercizes it's functionality. A brief look at the FP SDK indicates that it will support Javascript but provides no full JAVA classes. Is this true?

    Currently the FP client side components is implemented as a native Win32 COM control. The reference to JavaScript is the ability from within IE's rendering engine to allow JavaScript to access COM controls. I don't believe that this is doable from a java class.
