First off, please don't get mad about the COM questions.  I am a really
sensitive guy.
If I am creating an application that is written in Java....
1. Is there any reason to use any COM/DCOM at all?
2. Is there an advantage to using RMI?
3. If we used COM then does that mean that all the JAva classes need to be
run through the ActiveX Wizard for Java from Microsoft to create TLB's.
4. How do those TLB's get accessed then from other Java classes so that COM
is the interface between them?  Or is that just a totally stupid thing to
do?  Should they all just use RMI?  Dio the all get run through JAVAREG or
JActiveX from Microsoft? Then how are they called?
5.  How does Microsoft support RMI?  Or do they even have to for me to use
it on WinNT?
6.  Is the only advantage to using DCOM over RMI the fact that there is MTS?
Sorry about tall these questions but I am a tad bit confused by this.
I am undertaking a pretty huge project and I need to make some decisions and
frankly it's a bit frightening not knowing the answers to those things.  So,
any help at all with this is really gonna be appreciated alot.
