Hi Tim,

some random notes:

You can specify a native library location for jars in eclipse in the build path 
settings. 
For deployment either put them in /Library/Java/Extensions or explicitly 
specify the location (I don't have example code for that at hand). 
You can generate the headers with ant's javah task, but I remember running in 
some problem with that at some point, but I don't remember what it was... I 
ended up generating via CLI. 
You should really take a look at using JNA (https://jna.dev.java.net/), this 
can replace much of the boilerplate code and the generated headers! 
When you're interfacing with ObjC libraries, take a look at Rococoa 
(http://code.google.com/p/rococoa/). 
There's also some tool that auto-generates JNA/Rococoa code from C headers 
called JNAerator (http://code.google.com/p/jnaerator/). It had some problems 
when I looked at it, but this is quite a while ago.

HTH,

Timo
