Welcome to Java :-)

Not that it would make it shorter necessarily, but 
JNI is another possibility -- call native code from Java.

Jtux is a very nice implementation of Posix/Single Unix Specification
calls in Java using JNI.  See http://www.basepath.com/aup/jtux/
This doesn't include memcpy, but the jtux code uses memcpy, so
it might help to have a read.

This thread on experts-exchange has some good info and links as well:
