Java SE (Java Platform, Standard Edition)

Hi,

I wish to load my native libs from my applet, which is a signed jar.
The "problem" is in run time maybe I don't know the library exactly name, because:
- for windows I can have 2 .dll -s: MyNative.dll -for release and MyNatived.dll as debug version
- for Linux the extension isn't .dll , it is .so
- and for Mac I don't know the extension yet.

The native libs(all) are packed into jar root.

I have a written code sample which do something, but not as I wish:

   try {
            JarFile jarFile = new JarFile(*jarfile*);
            Enumeration enumEnntries = jarFile.entries();
            while (enumEnntries.hasMoreElements()) {
                process(enumEnntries.nextElement(), jarFile);
            }
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }

First problem/question how can I get the jarfile corrrect value? - for test proposes I give it an absolute path : "D:\\work\\.....MyJarWithApplet.jar"

private void process(Object obj, JarFile jarFile) {
        JarEntry entry = (JarEntry) obj;
        String name = entry.getName();
        long size = entry.getSize();
        long compressedSize = entry.getCompressedSize();
        //System.out.println(name + "\t" + size + "\t" + compressedSize);

      // here I have acccess to the entry name so, dll, debug dll. Here I know which dll I have in jar
      if(name.startsWith("MyNativeLibPrefix"){
           // than extract this entry to the System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir")
                .....
           // after extract: load the lib
              System.load(myExtractedFile.getAbsolutePath());
     }
}

There are better solution for this problem?
How can I give the correct value for the new JarFile(*jarfile*); ?
