Sybase Corp’s vice-president of product marketing, Dave Litwack told ComputerWire at its International User Conference in Orlando, Florida, last week that it’s nuts about Java and is now working with Sun Microsystems Inc to build JavaBean extensions for improved database access and also an application programming interface for a source manager that apparently does check in and check out routines.

It says it is currently evaluating Dublin-based Iona Technologies Ltd’s Orbix product and also Sun Microsystems Inc’s Java ORB, JOE.
