Loading DLL from an applet

Posted by Matt Gerrans on December 21, 2001 at 1:12 PM

> Environment: Windows NT, IE 5.5. My applet is certified (no security exceptions) but loading a DLL ends with "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkException" ALWAYS. I found some notes on microsoft's knowledge base reagarding setting library paths, but it did not help. I posted also the DLL-file on some directories I think Windows will search for the library, but nothing happens, the exception comes.
> Can somebody out there help me?

Are you using Microsoft's renegade JVM? If not, then you can't load a DLL, except by way of Native Methods.
