For this you should write JNI wrappers for the native functions, that is you create class with the native function prototypes as native methods, implement these methods with native functions in JNI module, each JNI function calls a native function from your DLL.

I know that JNI coding is a greate pain. That is why I am developing Java Platform Invoke which is a paradigm of .NET Platform Invoke. See my demo at
