Question

I am using Eclipse to generate a JNI header file. I looked in program filesjavajre6in and found a lot of .exe and .dll files, but I couldn't find the command javah which was in the documentation for using JNI to create bindings to C libraries.
Any help?

Answer 1

Use the following panel to define a new external tool for javah.exe.

Point "Location" to the javah.exe tool.

Set "Working Directory" to

${workspace_loc:/${project_name}/bin}

Set "Arguments" to:

-classpath ${project_classpath} -v -d ${workspace_loc:/${project_name}/src} ${java_type_name}

To run the tool, highlight the java source file in package explorer and run the tool.

Press F5 to refresh th project to see the newly generated file.
