The only problem with this is that you may encounter problems with
re-deployment when those COM objects need to be re-established.
You'll need to be careful about how you initialize the native library
and then perform your setup: if you do it like this:
try {
System.loadLibrary();
JavaComObject jco = new JavaComObject();
jco.setup();
}
...
then you're likely to fail since loadLibrary() can only be called once
during the lifetime of the JVM. Instead, you'll have to do something
like this:
try {
System.loadLibrary();
} catch (/* whatever gets thrown on a double-loadLibrary */) {
// ignore me
}
JavaComObject jco = new JavaComObject();
jco.setup();
Often, native wrappers try to perform their own initialization and
loadLibrary calls, which may not expect you to use the "safer" code
shown above. Good luck!
