I'm judging by the silence that my question was ridiculous, so I'll assume that fork() is not involved when invoking a native library directly. Apologies for the noise.

When invoking a native library using JNI/JNA on Solaris under Sun's JVM, is fork() used? I was hoping to use the native library directly to get around the limitation of Runtime.exec() which uses fork() to spawn the new process.

Thanks in advance, Geoff.
