Microsoft .NET Connector 3.1 - Mule 4
Anypoint Connector for Microsoft .NET (Microsoft .NET Connector) enables you to execute native .NET code in a Mule application. Microsoft .NET Connector has a dependency on the .NET CLR, which is available only on Windows machines.
This connector executes .NET code using Java Native Interface (JNI), which provides fast interprocess communication between Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and a native application that runs in a host operating system.
The connector supports one operation, Execute, which enables users to select a class and method to execute, and to pass the corresponding arguments for that method.
This connector supports standalone deployments only. This connector does not support CloudHub or Runtime Fabric deployments. |
