I need to access a COM object (SAPI 5.3, Microsoft's Speech API) from Java. I've been looking at some Java-COM integration tools. Com4j apparently doesn't handle some aspects of SAPI that I need. Jawin doesn't seem to be supported anymore. Jacob is still a possibility, but it's a little fuzzy whether it handles the necessary events/callbacks correctly without leaking.

So I'm wondering about going a little lower-level with JNA. How reasonable is it to use JNA to access a COM object?
