Hi, I remembered that somebody had asked questioned regarding java_g at that time most of the replies were there is nothing called java_g in JAVA. But while going through docs of Java i came accross following statement.could anyone clarify what that sentence mean. public void load(String filename) Loads the specified filename as a dynamic library. The filename argument must be a complete pathname. From java_g it will automagically insert "_g" before the ".so" (for example Runtime.getRuntime().load("/home/avh/lib/libX11.so") .
from above code what does the underline statement signify.Can anyone clear my doubt. Thanx in advance. byeeeeee

HiSadashiv, As far as I can remember under JDK1.1 you use to have two library files in the LIB directory of JDK these were javai.lib and javai_g.lib. I think these files no longer exist in JDK1.2. But it is possible to load these library files using the load command. Probably the documentation that you are seeing explains the naming convention that you need to use to load .lib files.
