Creating JNI libraries on MacOS X

Building JNI libraries is a bit of black magic, especially when you're dealing with different platforms like Linux and MacOS X. I found the following two references very helpful in understanding of how to build and run a JNI library on MacOS X:

• http://www.mindspring.com/~david.dagon/jni/Native.txt
• http://developer.apple.com/qa/java/java28.html

Now that I figured out the MacOS X part, I hope the Linux part to be very similar.
