Native Compile to Shared Library?

Thu Nov 3 14:47:00 GMT 2005

I'm revisiting the use of GCJ for native compilation purposes for OSX, LInux, and Windows targets. I'm wondering if I can compile a set of classes to a shared library that can be called via JNI or some other method from a Java app running via a Sun JVM. 
The goal would be to allow the necessary set of classes to be native compiled, but still written in Java. Thus, we would not need to have 3 codebases for the native code in c++ on each platform.
