The Java Bridge certainly seems to have been created because Apple (or

Java to make it more marketable to the enterprise crowd.
That was Apple's idea according to my understanding of the history,
although WO/Java was originally implemented (alongside WO/Objc) by NeXT
in 1996 when they started entering into "collaboration" [in order to
look more appealing to Apple]. Apple decided that Java was the future
for everything; anyone who's tried running TextEdit on Rhapsody can
probably see why they backpedalled on that.
BTW on the Java/OpenStep crossover note, ever seen "Modern Syntax"
Objective-C? Sick, sick and wrong. This is why the Objective-C
documentation in Cocoa refers to "ObjC_classic"....
