# The java/jna port

## jna-5.18.1 – Java Native Access (JNA)

## Description

    JNA provides Java programs easy access to native shared libraries
    without writing anything but Java code -- no JNI or native code is
    required. This functionality is comparable to Windows' Platform/Invoke
    and Python's ctypes. Access is dynamic at runtime without code
    generation.

    JNA allows you to call directly into native functions using natural Java
    method invocation. The Java call looks just like it does in native code.
    Most calls require no special handling or configuration; no boilerplate
    or generated code is required.
