You can run Drupal in java!!! caucho's Quercus is an efficient java implementation of PHP. So you can embed Drupal on your java application server. see http://www.caucho.com/resin-3.0/quercus/tutorial/module/index.xtp
Instructions on the Resin wiki (for Drupal 4.7 at least): http://wiki.caucho.com/Quercus:_Drupal
I can't remember who posted this elsewhere on the lists, but I got it from another posting.

Thanks for your input Larry. By "used with" I mean that the CMS would be accessed via the Java web application. However, the architecture you mentioned below seems like a more viable solution. I can run Drupal separately from the application and have the application pull from the Drupal MySQL database. This is also a better design since the application is for user and the CMS is for the admin so they really should be separate.

For what definition of "used with"? Drupal is entirely PHP, not Java, so runtime integration is out. (In theory there some sort of huge hack to make PHP talk to Java at runtime, but I've never touched it as the very idea is scary.) You could, however, have a Java app read the Drupal MySQL database and parse out whatever data it needs from it. The vast majority of the data in the database is well-normalized SQL-friendly fields, but you do have to know Drupal's data schema.
Really, it depends on what "used with" means.

Does anyone know if Drupal can be used with a Struts-based Java application? If so, has anyone actually done this and how can it be achieved? Thank you.
