3 projects
java-project
dll-project
depends on java-project and use native-native-plugin to do javaH and
build the dll and run junit against the dll/jni
plugin-project
depends on dll-project and use dependency-maven-plugin to copy
java-project's jar and dll-project'dll to appropriate space in
the plugin. Not sure how to build the plugin thru maven thou.
