     I don't know, but I doubt it.  C's and Java's models of computing
are significantly different, and I think it would be very difficult to
translate C to Java.  For starters, C can inspect and alter individual
bytes of an object representation, while Java cannot.  This means that
almost anything you do with a C pointer would be very hard to simulate
in Java.

     Lisp-to-Java might be easier. ;-)

     What is the larger problem you are trying to solve?  What piece of C
are you interested in translating to Java, and why?
