Question

First of all, we are talking about Keepass here.
The file in question is: KeePass-2.19-Source\KeePass\Native\NativeMethods.cs

The code.. well, is the file itself. But here is a snippet:

    [DllImport("KeePassLibC32.dll", EntryPoint = "TransformKey256")]
    [return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
    private static extern bool TransformKey32(IntPtr pBuf256,
        IntPtr pKey256, UInt64 uRounds);  

Now the problem is, that Java doesn’t support Attribute Targets. How can I port the file into Java?
Is it possible? If so… how?

Answer 1

Java does support attribute targets (but they are “annotation” targets): http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/annotation/Target.html

But that will not help you much… unless you plan to invent your own DllImport that somehow uses JNI… throught something like JSR-299
