code written in the Java programming language with code written in
other languages such as C and C++. It allows programmers to take full

investment in legacy code. This book is the definitive resource and a
comprehensive guide to working with the JNI. Entirely up-to-date, the
book offers a tutorial, a detailed description of JNI features and
programming techniques, JNI design justifications, and the official
specification for all JNI types and functions. You will find coverage of
important topics such as: *Writing native methods *Passing data types
between the Java language and native programming languages *Embedding a
Java virtual machine implementation in native applications *Leveraging
legacy native libraries *Improving the efficiency and reliability of
your code An entire chapter is devoted to avoiding common traps and
pitfalls. The book uses numerous examples to illustrate programming
techniques that have proven to be effective.
