<h3>Description</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Generates JNI headers from a Java class.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p> When this task executes, it will generate the C header and source files that
|
|
|
|
are needed to implement native methods. JNI operates differently depending on
|
|
|
|
whether <a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/tooldocs/win32/javah.html">JDK1.2</a>
|
|
|
|
(or later) or <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/tooldocs/win32/javah.html">pre-JDK1.2</a>
|
|
|
|
systems are used.</p>
|
2005-02-04 08:08:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>It is possible to use different compilers. This can be selected
|
|
|
|
with the <code>implementation</code> attribute. <a
|
|
|
|
name="implementationvalues">Here are the choices</a>:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>default - the default compiler (kaffeh or sun) for the platform.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>sun (the standard compiler of the JDK)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>kaffeh (the native standard compiler of <a href="http://www.kaffe.org" target="_top">Kaffe</a>)</li>

</ul>

<h3>Examples</h3>
|
2002-09-04 11:05:19 +00:00
|
|
|
<pre> <javah destdir="c" class="org.foo.bar.Wibble"/></pre>
|
2001-03-02 16:01:13 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>makes a JNI header of the named class, using the JDK1.2 JNI model. Assuming
|
|
|
|
the directory 'c' already exists, the file <tt>org_foo_bar_Wibble.h</tt>
|
|
|
|
is created there. If this file already exists, it is left unchanged.</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre> <javah outputFile="wibble.h">
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Wibble,org.foo.bar.Bobble"/>
|
|
|
|
</javah></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>is similar to the previous example, except the output is written to a file
|
|
|
|
called <tt>wibble.h</tt>
|
|
|
|
in the current directory.</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre> <javah destdir="c" force="yes">
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Wibble"/>
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Bobble"/>
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Tribble"/>
|
|
|
|
</javah></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>writes three header files, one for each of the classes named. Because the
|
|
|
|
force option is set, these header files are always written when the Javah task
|
|
|
|
is invoked, even if they already exist.</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre> <javah destdir="c" verbose="yes" old="yes" force="yes">
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Wibble"/>
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Bobble"/>
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Tribble"/>
|
|
|
|
</javah>
|
|
|
|
<javah destdir="c" verbose="yes" stubs="yes" old="yes" force="yes">
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Wibble"/>
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Bobble"/>
|
|
|
|
<class name="org.foo.bar.Tribble"/>
|
|
|
|
</javah></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>writes the headers for the three classes using the 'old' JNI format, then
|
|
|
|
writes the corresponding .c stubs. The verbose option will cause Javah to
|
|
|
|
describe its progress.</p>
