I have a .dll that was provided, and I need to interface with it using java.
Do I have to rewrite the C to use the JNI types provided in jni.h? as seen in java sun’s jni example.
Otherwise, How do i declare the native function my java function to pass and receive pointers?
thanks
You may find JNA useful
“JNA provides Java programs easy access to native shared libraries (DLLs on Windows) without writing anything but Java code—no JNI or native code is required. This functionality is comparable to Windows’ Platform/Invoke and Python’s ctypes. Access is dynamic at runtime without code generation.”
