pas2jni(1) Free Pascal Java Native Interface generation tool

SYNOPSIS

pas2jni [options] <unit> [<unit2> <unit3> ...]

Generate a Java native interface description and library from compiled Free Pascal units. pas2jni generates per unit 2 files: a library that provides access to the functions and procedures in the pascal unit in a manner that Java understands, and a .java file that describes the library, and can be used to access the library from Java.

OPTIONS

-U<path>
Unit search path, semicolon delimited. Wildcards are allowed.
-L<name>
Set output library name. By default, this is the name of the unit followed by 'jni'.
-P<name>
Set Java package name. This is by default 'pas'.
-O<path>
Set output path for Pascal files. This is the current directory, by default.
-J<path>

-D<prog>
Set full path to the "ppudump" program. The ppudump program is needed to analyse the contents of the unit files.
