             Summary: Provide translator/connector for calling Java api
                 Key: TEIID-4748
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-4748
             Project: Teiid
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Misc. Connectors
            Reporter: Van Halbert
            Assignee: Steven Hawkins


Provide a translator/connector for doing the following:
-  calling a java method on an API that returns an object (or collection)
-  the return object should be exposed as a table 
-  the resource adapter should be able to provide the connection to the java api (either remote or local)

This scenario doesn't  work with the current object translator, as its based on reading from a cache (map) and the connection methods are exposed based on that scenario.

The object translator has, at its core, the base for handling all the reflection logic for reading and writing on a java object.   It may make sense to refactor out the core logic for reuse.
