Java Beans

Is it possible to use a JavaBean in a C++ application?
Do you know where I can get an example?

There tools to package existing C++ objects as Java Beans and vice versa (the code is compiled as a dynamic link library (dll))

like

(1) VisualAge for Java C++ Access Builder

(2) cxxwrap

You may use them.

can you also use these C++ JavaBeans in Unix? (shared object library)

can you use a JavaBean in a C++ application?

cxxwrap is supported on Unix platform also. VisualAge ?...I have no idea. I never used it but my friends don't talk in favor of it.

Vice versa should not be a problem.

One last question and then I will give you the 300 points.
Can you treat these JavaBeans like objects?

Example
class Foo
{
Foo();

void Fx() { cout << "fx" << endl; };
void Fy() { cout << "fy" << endl; };

};

can I use this class as an object in Java?

Example:
Foo foo;
foo.Fx();
foo.Fy();

Can I use a Java class/object in C++?

Thanks for your help and I promise to give you the points.
