I should be possible to wrap these classes fairly easily, but
keep in mind that Java is built to work with C, not C++. I should
clarify by saying that you can write C++ code and link it, but you
can't have any of the symbol-name mangling, and therefore no function
overloading.
If I'm wrong about this, someone please clue me.
