    I'm trying to include a c++ library into my Java application.
    Does anyone know how to do this?

    Thanks lynchie gave me an idea what to do anyway.

    still having problems though, trying to figure out how to link an existing library to my java code, that tutorial shows you how to create a new one and link it.


    Can you link a .lib or does it have to be a dll??

    You could write your own DLL to wrap around the C++ library. The C++ code would probably be very minimal. I'm sure that tutorial explains how to do it, then its just a matter of writing an interface for the library your using.
