Hi,

I want to use a block of  LISP code (some function) in my Java program. I
don't know if it can get accomplished. Does anyone can give me some clue?
I'd appreciated it if someone would like to help me. Please reply to

If you have only a small piece of code then you can probably just manually
rewrite it as Java. If you have a large program then you could consider using
CORBA. This means using both a Common Lisp ORB and a Java ORB to enable the
communication to happen. Java ORBs are ubiquitous. Common Lisp ORBs are
available from Harlequin (HCL-ORB), Franz (ORBLink), and Xerox PARC (ILU).

you may have a look on JESS (Java expert system shell)...
JESS is a shell written in Java... Pls visit

Look at http://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/

This is for Scheme, not LISP, but might be useful for you nevertheless.

Depends on the code.  There is at least one Scheme=in-Java system (check 
out www.schemers.org) called Kawa.  So if your Lisp function is not too
difficult to rewrite in Scheme that's probably your best bet.

If one's Lisp function is not too difficult to rewrite in Scheme, it
probably isn't too difficult to rewrite in Java.... ;-)

No, if you can post, you can read.

See http://ai.uga.edu/~bancroft/doc. It's primarily an implementation
of MELD in Java, but includes Lisp-in-Java.
