Java Applet calling C++ Code

Question

Hei guys,
I have a c++ library of sorts. A user has written a Java Applet and wants to be able to call the C++ library functions.
This is something my supervisor proposed. He suggested that Applet via a web service call (AXIS-C++) and using tomcat server , will call the shared C++ library. Btw, I am working in an Ubuntu environment.

I would like to know whether this is the best solution or is there any other solutions which you guys would know.

Thanks in advance..

Cheers.

java

I did this in the past...

This article was very helpfull to me:

But web services might be a better solution...
It depends on how you whish to distribute the application... Generally the web services approach would be a bit slower too...
