you may look into jna. gstreamer-java use it. it's much simpler, easier
then jni without the above problems.
Well back in 97 we tried to avoid JNI in the Kaffe project, the
alternative was more elegant, easier, faster. I think everybody outside
of java has hoped or tried to develop different bindings mechanism,
unfortunately none prevailed, at this point I will stick with JNI,
