First of all, thanks for the answer Matthias, I've been looking for help for
some time.
I had already tried your suggestion, I added the function just as the same
way you did above, and I have this error:
Exception in thread "main"* java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Error looking up
function 'virEventRegisterDefaultImpl': /usr/local/lib/libvirt.so: undefined
symbol: virEventRegisterDefaultImpl*
at com.sun.jna.Function.<init>(Function.java:179)

I did not post not go too technical. I have the feeling that I need to
arrange one more step to satisfy the link to java bindings, because I've
tested event-driving in C and it works fine. Since I could not figure out if
I can do it on binding side or it should be done originally by the driver,
I've posted my question.
So, any comments about how can I complete the link to C API? Maybe how to
edit this "libvirt.so"?
Regards
Kadir
PS: Everything else works fine, libvirtd running, I can command to domains,
etc. I can even register my own callback and register it via
Connect.setErrorCallback(). I assume only missing thing is the link.
