Introduction to JNA

Java Native Access (JNA) is a community-developed library providing Java programs an easy access to native shared libraries (.dll files on windows, .so files on Unix ...)

JNA is a mature library with dozens of contributors and hundreds of commercial and non-commercial projects that use it.

Who use JNA?

Features

• Automatic mapping from Java to native functions, with simple mappings for all primitive data types
• Runs on most platforms which support Java
• Automatic conversion between C and Java strings, with customizable encoding/decoding
• Structure and Union arguments/return values, by reference and by value
• Function Pointers, (callbacks from native code to Java) as arguments and/or members of a struct
• Auto-generated Java proxies for native function pointers
• By-reference (pointer-to-type) arguments
• Java array and NIO Buffer arguments (primitive types and pointers) as pointer-to-buffer
• Nested structures and arrays
• Wide (wchar_t-based) strings
• Native long support (32- or 64-bit as appropriate)
• Demo applications/examples
• Supported on 1.4 or later JVMs, including JavaME (earlier VMs may work with stubbed NIO support)
• Customizable marshalling/unmarshalling (argument and return value conversions)
• Customizable mapping from Java method to native function name, and customizable invocation to simulate C preprocessor function macros
• Support for automatic Windows ASCII/UNICODE function mappings
• Varargs support
• Type-safety for native pointers
• VM crash protection (optional)
• Optimized direct mapping for high-performance applications.
• COM support for early and late binding.
• COM/Typelib java code generator.

Why JNA

JNA(Java Native Access)是一个开源的Java框架，是Sun公司推出的一种调用本地方法的技术，是建立在经典的JNI基础之上的一个框架。之所以说它是JNI的替 代者，是因为JNA大大简化了调用本地方法的过程，使用很方便，基本上不需要脱离Java环境就可以完成。

下载jar

GitHub - java-native-access/jna at 5.10.0Java Native Access. Contribute to java-native-access/jna development by creating an account on GitHub.https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/tree/5.10.0

Hello World示例

示例代码：
 jna/GettingStarted.md at master · java-native-access/jna · GitHubJava Native Access. Contribute to java-native-access/jna development by creating an account on GitHub.https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/blob/master/www/GettingStarted.md

其中代码有些不友好,环境介绍只有一句：

Begin by downloading the latest release of JNA and referencing jna.jar in your project's CLASSPATH

如果不熟悉会出现如下问题：

1. 编译时出现cannot find symbol com.sun.jna.Library问题

需要在javac和java 中指定-classpath

javac -classpath .:jna.jar -g com/sun/jna/examples/HelloWorld.java

java -classpath .:jna.jar com.sun.jna.examples.HelloWorld

2. 运行时出现java.lang.NoClassDefFound问题

问题出在package com.sun.jna.examples

请放文件在如下目录：

/examples

        jna.jar        

         /com    

                /sun      

                        /jna          

                                /examples          

                                         HelloWorld.java

参考java - JNA 示例程序 java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError - IT工具网https://www.coder.work/article/1410839

其他的代码解释：

 参考JNI的替代者—使用JNA访问Java外部功能接口 - Alexia(minmin) - 博客园1. JNA简单介绍先说JNI(Java Native Interface)吧，有过不同语言间通信经历的一般都知道，它允许Java代码和其他语言（尤其C/C++）写的代码进行交互，只要遵守调用约定即可https://www.cnblogs.com/lanxuezaipiao/p/3635556.html
