Linking mkl functions with JAVA

joesam — Tue, 28 Nov 2006 14:21:52 GMT

Please give me the details of how to link the mkl functions with JAVA.

Is there any setting option in JAVA to include the files "mkl_c.lib" and "libguide.lib"?

Or the procedure for calling mkl functions from JAVA is different compared to VC++?

Regards

Joesam

Joesam,

Are you asking about Suns Java and its ports? If so, then basically, yes, the way to call MKL functions from Java is different.

Java implementations deem MKL as native code which is distinguished from Java bytecode. For calling native code from Java bytecode, Java supports the so-called Java Native Interface (JNI). You may read about JNI at the Suns web-site:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/jni/index.html

Roughly speaking, one needs to know three points about the JNI:

The keyword native of the Java Language which is used to mark stub methods.
The javah tool found inside JDK which is used to generate *.h files for the stubs.
Understand what the stubs are.

To simplify the get started stage of studying JNI, you may want to see the codes for the example Hello World! application which Im displaying hereby. Hopefully, this must help.

Thanks,

Yevgeny Latkin

This article was very helpful.

Moving one step ahead, could you please suggest some example with makefile where JAVA is calling fortran with JNI as wrapper.

Thanks a lot in advance!!
