No more or less than any other Java program, so simply look in the standard JNI documentation. > One thing I noticed is the Java documenation states that > the JNI Java wrapper .jar should be in the classpath and > then it should work Please provide a reference to the above, since what you have stated makes no real sense. The locations of Java classes and native libraries are completely independent. Note that there is no "the" classpath in any Java environment; at least three exist in all Java program executions, more in complex app servers. > Incidently I did the same thing in C# .net and it was > extremely easy to find Since C# .NET is analogous to Java, not Tomcat, why are you vainly looking in Tomcat doc for JNI information? You need to become familiar with JNI, for which Sun has tutorials available. Note that the rule that a native library can be loaded only once is a Java rule, not a Tomcat one. You're making this much harder than it really is. As people have pointed out before, if you're on a Linux/UNIX platform, set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to where your .so file is located; on Windows make sure the .dll location is included in PATH. That's all there is to it. Wade C has described an alternative, but it's not completely independent of container, since it depends on your .war file being expanded into a real file system, and not all containers do that. I believe your statement that this situation will become more and more frequent is erroneous, since there seems to be considerable momentum to move towards more platform-independence (Java, C#), rather than invest in high-maintenance languages such as C (and C++). - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
