Sir,
I fear it's not that simple. As far as I understood it's like
using c functions in Java with JNI. There we put wrapper and translate
functions calls for linking.
Something similar seems to be the concept in NesC also.
Please see the file /usr/share/ncc/doc/user/binary-components.txt which
gives example of this.
I tried that and could not write my own with above Leds scenario.
Anybody worked in binary components, please reply.
