Q
Qu0ll
I have a 3rd-party JAR which includes code that requires a DLL (or .so on
Linux) to work and I need to use it in a JNLP-launched applet. What's
required?
1. I believe I need to get the DLL inside its own JAR and mark it as a
native library in the JNLP. Is that just a matter of using the jar command
to put it in the JAR?
2. Must the applet then be signed?
3. If yes to (2), will the end user still get some kind of security warning
before running the applet?
4. If yes to (3), will the warning only appear the first time the applet is
run?
5. Do I need to manually "load" the DLL inside the applet's code? If not,
how else does it know where to find the DLL (like -Djava.library.path in an
application)?

And loving it,
