I very much want the J IDE for the J side of things, for my initial explorations. The reason is J debugging support.
Meanwhile, the other program uses wxWidgets (and needs elevated privileges for some reason - I think it's because of rendering, but it's just using opengl so I'm actually not completely sure why... I should look into that). I don't think I can integrate Qt and wxWidgets - both want to own the top level of control for the program. So I just want some way for the two to communicate with each other. So perhaps I am stuck with using files... That said, if there's a way of using JHS with j.dll wired into another program, that would work for me.
