I am fiddling with calling c/c++ .dlls from Java. I had to drop the
.dll file in the ../j2sdk1.4.2\jre\bin directory in order for my
application to see it. Can I make an application level lib directory
and how do I point the application to it?

thx,
jla

DLL are searched in directories specified with the PATH-
environment-variable, so place your DLL in one of these
paths or extend the PATH-variable by the path the DLL is
residing in.

Thanks! My forehead is getting flatter from recognizing the obvious. I
apologize for getting back so late. We were getting ready for the
hurricane.
