Confused by JNI

Hi,

I'm trying to make sense of the JNI documentation, and not getting anywhere.

I want to call an existing windows .DLL from within a Java application. If
I'm reading the JNI stuff in the tutorial correctly, I'm going to have to
create some C code to do the call, and then link my java class, the .H
created from javah, and the C code together into an intermediate DLL.

I hope I'm totally misunderstanding this, because this seems like a lot of
effort to call an existing routine, especially as I'm not a C programmer,
and have never run a C compiler...

Any help and/or examples anyone would care to share would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris.
