NAME¶

pas2jni - Free Pascal Java Native Interface generation tool

SYNOPSIS¶

pas2jni [options] <unit> [<unit2> <unit3> ...]

Generate a Java native interface description and library from compiled Free Pascal units. pas2jni generates per unit 2 files: a library that provides access to the functions and procedures in the pascal unit in a manner that Java understands, and a .java file that describes the library, and can be used to access the library from Java.

-U<path>

Unit search path, semicolon delimited. Wildcards are allowed.

-L<name>

Set output library name. By default, this is the name of the unit followed by 'jni'.

-P<name>

-J<path>

-D<prog>
