I'm having some trouble getting the Win95/NT Alpha3 version of HotJava to
work with my Native Method DLL. It appears as if the call to LoadLibrary() is
failing (gracefully and silently though). I can actually get the native
method to work by running my debugger (VC++ 2.2) on the DLL while launching
HotJava as the running EXE for the DLL (a debugger option). But when I run
HotJava alone my native method calls don't work. I'm assuming since when run
in the debugger, VC actually finds and loads the DLL, HotJava has no problem
loading the DLL a second time. But when run independently, HotJava apparently
has problems locating the DLL. I've tried placing the DLLs in the Windows &
Windows\System directories, as well as the Java\Bin directory, but no luck.
Any suggestions?

By the way, does anybody have an answer for why Netscape doesn't plan to
support Native Methods in Navigator? I think they think it's a security
issue... but it seems that their plug-ins or standard old helper apps would
have the same security problems as a native method.
