I would suggest swig for wrapping C++ - or one of the commercial offerings that Timothy mentioned. Swig can do a reasonable job of replicating your C++ object hierarchy in java.

Using JNA would be more pain than its worth, unless you only need a handful of objects/methods.

Hi,

I apologise if this is already answered in the JNA documentation, or elsewhere on the mailing list, but I looked I could not find anything clear.

I'm new to JNA - I'm evaluating the use of JNA as opposed to SWIG+JNI for providing a java wrapper for some C++ libraries that I wish to use from java. The C++ libraries are relatively stable, so I don't really want to change anything about them, although at a push, I will be able to tweak how they get built.

How do I access a C++ objects/methods in a shared library from JNA? Is there any documentation about the best way to do this?

Thanks, Tim
