This is my first attempt at JNI. My ultimate goal is to get all tasks currently running on a machine, but need to get even a simple example running. I keep getting this erro

Answer 1

I believe that you should be using

System.loadLibrary("HelloWorld");

instead of System.load. LoadLibrary will check your system path (not the Java library path) so make sure that HelloWorld.dll is in a directory where it can found. Also note that it does not require the full path, and you don't need to add the dll extension to the end.
