I am 100% behind Cedric on this one.
I get frustrated when Sun is so pious on the whole VM, 100% portable code, thing.
The reality is that we have real work to be done. There are viable situations where I *need access to native code*. Why not allow me a nice way to do this?
There is a LOT of code out there in C++ etc, and not everyone wants to port it to Java. Give us nice intergration paths, and NICER THAN JNI.
We know that great people on the Sun team have created a better way to work with native code (a la .NET).
Let us have it. Let us have the control.
