Viewlet and Java

Hello,
Viewlets contribution as far as I can see are done via Dojo and Javascript using the extension point "com.ibm.team.dashboard.common.viewlets".
Is it possible to invoke a Java class from a Viewlet for instance?
Thank you

Hi Marly,

A client-side JavaScript viewlet can invoke server-side Java code via REST service calls (AJAX). A viewlet developer can write their own custom REST services in Java using facilities provided by the Foundation.

Please refer to the following documents for more details and tutorials:
