Link your C++ program with the {JDK_HOME}\lib\jvm.lib library.Regards

Thanks a lot for replying...

Now there is no compilation error.

But the function JNI_CreateJavaVM does not create JVM and is returning an error. What could be the reasons and how can i get away with this.

It's because when starting the execution of your program the linked jvm.dll to load could not be found.

Before executing your program update the Path environment variable by adding the folder path of the jvm.dll location:

{JDK_HOME}\jre\bin\client

-or-

{JRE_HOME}\bin\client
