==Introduction==
The [[Java Native Interface]] enabled Developers to add platform-dependant functionality to Java Applications. It enables developers to add things like time-critical operations like mathematical calculations and 3-D Rendering. 3-D Rendering is interesting, because the native side don't know where to draw the graphics! The AWT Native Interface is designed to give developers a sort of a "canvas" for their native programs to "draw" on. The AWT Native Interface is very similar to the JNI, and, the steps are, in fact, the same as those of the JNI. So, it is highly recommended that you read the [[Java Native Interface]] article first before continuing.
Note that the AWT Interface only existed since JDK 1.3 ("Kestrel")
