Including .dll in .jar files

[Vijaishanker bala]

hi,
I am developing a plugin for eclipse which takes an external jar file. For this jar file to perform it's function, it requires yet another 2 .dll files. How do I add/reference the dll files in the plugin, if i have to do it using the classpath, what will the syntax look like, considering the fact that the dll files are C:/windows/system32/jawin.dll and D:/ematrix/mqlio32u.dll.
Thanks in advance

I don't think the OS will look in a jar file to find a dll. It probably looks on a special path such as the PATH environment variable holds and possibly the current directory.

How does your code reference the dll? Does is use JNI or some other OS specific code?

What syntax are you talking about?
