Answer 1

I had this problem when I add to -classpath my source directory. I thought classes are in *.java files ;)

Javah is working on byte code so you have to add directory with your binaries to classpath

I made some eclipse task:

"Location"

${env_var:JAVA_HOME}\bin\javah.exe

"Arguments"

-verbose 
-force
-classpath ;${project_loc}\bin
-d ${project_loc}\jni 
${java_type_name}

Select file and Run
