You can get oobj_md.h and typedefs_md.h from hotjava\include\win32
in the Alpha-2 NT release.
You can get typecodes.h, native.h and tree.h from hotjava/include
in the Solaris Alpha-3 release.
You'll need to generate java_lang_String.h yourself with
"javah java.lang.String".

Maybe it's all a part of Javas security mechanism - native
methods are insecure, so making them difficult to implement by
omitting header files, not releasing source etc. increases
security :-)
