This repository contains three separate examples of calling a simple C++ library from Java code.

The example library doesn't do anything but contains a class, Calculator, forcing us to support C++ (and not just plain C).

CMake is used to build this, since locating the dependencies got outside the range of my make-fu. The project is supposed to be portable to all major platforms.

Three different wrappers are used, documented below. Each one achieves the same goal, which is using this C++ class from Java code.

This examples uses JNI directly, without auto-generation. The Calculator class in Java code just declares its methods as being "native", they are provided by the dynamic library.
