Calling Java Class from C

[NawazKhurshid]

I have an editor that is written in C lauguage, it contains many blocks whose computational function are written in C language. For one block I have a computational code written in JAVA. I want to Call Java Function for this. I can use JNI but i m thinking of a different option for which i need your help.

First of All is it possible to execute a command line instruction like dir, ipconfig from C language Program using exec()or any other function.
I am on WINDOWS not on UNIX or linux.

If so, then i can execute javac from C program.

Please Please help me in this regard

Use the system() function.
Ex:

system( "dir" );

You can invoke a java program from the command line, but you won't have access to a class or method.
