How do I create Java class object and run its functions in PHP?

Question

I have two files, index.php and foo.java. In foo.java I have the class bar with the function foobar.

Now I want to create object baz in my index.php of the class bar and make it run function foobar. I know PHP and Java don't speak the same language, but I can use JSON to create an java object and have it call the function? If so, how?

Why vote down and not leave a comment? Please help me improve the question instead. — Krusing

You can use exec() or shell_exec() commands and run java from CLI. This may be a possible way. php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php php.net/manual/en/function.shell-exec.php pretty question. :) — Pratik Soni

You can use shell_exec and run java from CLI.

<?php
$output = shell_exec('java [MyPackage.]MyClass MY_METHOD');
echo "<pre>$output</pre>";
?>
