And so the chronicles report that Raanan Nitzen spake thusly unto the masses:

If you mean JavaScript, no it's not the same language. If you mean compile
Java to native executable, the JDK does not do this and doing so really
defeats the purpose of Java (if you want to simply to use the included
libraries, I'd recommend using a C++ library with the same functionality
[they exist]).

What is a .pac file?

If you did compile the Java to native executable (not using the JDK of
course) you could use it, in that you could build shared libraries
from the Java code and then link to those libraries from the C executable.
You'll probably need to use the javah program included in the JDK (or perhaps
the Java->native compiler will generate function prototypes for you).
FYI, the egcs project has GCJ which is a Java front-end for GCC and can
compile both .java and .class files to assembly; but it's still not ready for
prime time yet (I don't think it'll produce object code you can execute or
link to yet). The homepage is at http://sourceware.cygnus.com/java/gcj.html.
