I have a large static library (.lib) that I do not have the source
for. I have the header files for this library, so if using C++ there
are no problems.
However, the PTB have determined that the project will be written in
Java. Looking at JNI, that would seem to be the only cross-platform
system available. (The static library uses ACE, so it is
cross-platform as well)
The problem:
This library has hundreds and hundreds of function calls in it. Using
JNI, I would have to wrap the static library into a dynamic library,
and write glue code for *every* *single* *function* in the library.
Is there any way to partially automate this process? My fingers ache
just thinking about it.

See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/jni.html at the bottom there are links
to several JNI generators.
