Re: [Bacula-devel] Problem adding a C file to the source code

[<mah...@ya...>]

Hi Kern,
    Thanks you really very very much for the prompt
reply. The things surely help a great. I'll bother the
list again if I'm stuck somewhere.
    As far as using the C++ is concerned, JNI ( Java
Native Interface ) book that I'm using says that
native side can be C++ also. So, no probs, I'l use C++
if needed.
    Thanks once again.
