==Compiled Native Interface (CNI)==

The '''Compiled Native Interface''' ('''CNI'''), previously named "Cygnus Native Interface"), is a [[software framework]] for the GCJ that allows Java code to [[Call site|call]], and be [[Call site|called]], by native applications (programs specific to a hardware and operating-system platform) and libraries written in [[C++]].

CNI closely resembles the [[Java Native Interface|JNI]] (Java Native Interface) framework which comes as a standard with various [[Java virtual machine]]s.
