JNI and web services

[Matthew Graham]

Hi,

I am trying to expose some C code as a web service via Java and JNI. 
Everything works fine in a standalone mode but when I put it all together
as a web service with Tomcat/Axis, the dynamic library that JNI creates
(libfoo.so) cannot be found. This is the classic UnsatisfiedLinkError that
JNI throws out because the library is not in java.library.path; however,
how does one go about setting java.library.path so that it will get picked
up without hardcoding the Tomcat setup? 

I have tried setting java.library.path just before the C code is called
and loading the library is attempted but it does not seem to work; has
anyone tried this and if so, got it to work?

	Cheers,

	Matthew
