hey

i'm new in java I would like to convert my c++ progarmes to java
but I faced some proplem because most of my programes linked to c/c++ libs as will as use the headers of these libs .
any one can help to make port for some c/c++ libs to java
thnx

I too am new to Java but I would think that most libraries are ported to Java. If not you could check if Java has some standard library solution for it already.

hey
i dont talking about standred lib for example if used rpm or parted lib in my original c++ pro
how can i link to them from java (using of headers and dynamic linking of libs )
thnx for replay

In Java you can define a class property as "native" meaning it refers to a piece of native code (ie. C, C++ - non-Java).

I've never used this, though, and have no idea as to how to incorporate it. Google searching should be able to help you with this, though.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Native_Interface - be aware that such programs are not portable like java is.

Thank you guys for replaying … I Don't traying such techinque but I think this may be heavy and may cause dealying .
I Meant how to convert C/C++ LIBS To Native JAVA Class
(I SAW SOME THING LIKE THAT IN PYTHON "you can see source code of parted for example you will find python dir check it ") and Dealing with them as java class .

Really, I've run into situations like this before, where I would to make use of a certain library in Java, but don't want to "native" it.

My solution, at the time, was to rewrite it, in Java. Also, if you do a Google search for "java" + the library you might be able to find someone's unofficial package for that library. The two biggest problems with this would be (1) you hope the author documents everything properly - but this won't be much of an issue if you use an IDE like Netbeans or Eclipse - and (2) the method structures would be completely different - even moreso if written in C. I can't think of how many times I've tried to rewrite C/C++ libraries in Java, and just given up due to the convilution of some of them.

It's not possible to rewrite some libs into "native" java (most of them deals with hardware).

Oh, I know - I should have been a little more specific with my comment - I was referring to things like graphics libraries, and some compression libraries.
