Hello,

I'm currently doing a project involving accessing a (linux-based) C library in Java. I've tried and messed with JNI shortly then discovered JNA... What a relief, what a great piece of software... so first of all, Thank You! ;) But I'd like to have more information about Strings and array pointers. Let me explain :

- Strings : I have a function that is supposed to return a string, with the following signature : int upkstr(char *str)... Trying to map it to the java int upkstr(String str) doesn't work (String are immutable objects and a call like upkstr(oneExistingString) leaves oneExistingString unchanged :( How can I get a String result when it is not from the return parameter of the C function?

-Arrays pointers : I'd like to know a little more on how to map pointers to arrays in C (eg in a function that has following signature : pkint(int *anArrayOfInts, int arraylength) ? Maybe there's more details in the examples, haven't looked through them yet... If so could you point me where to search ;)

Thank you in advance! Edralzar
