Using JNA within GlassFish Application Client Container (GF ACC)

[ka...@quipsy.de]

I am using JNA inside of a client application running inside of
GlassFish v3's Application Client Container.

In GFv2ur2 this was working really well. I just copied jna.jar and
platform.jar into /lib inside of my EAR, and could use it.

In GFv3.1.x this is not working anymore. When I try to call
Advapi32Util.registryKeyExists at runtime it says "IllegalAccess":
tried to access method com.sun.jna.Pointer.<init>(J)V from class
com.sun.jna.platform.win32.WinReg$HKEY.

Has anybody an idea how I can convince the GF ACC that it shall not
complain but just execute the call?

Make sure both jna.jar and platform.jar are from the same release, that you're not mixing between two versions of JNA.
