[SOLVED] com4j on Windows 64 bit

com4j on Windows 64 bit

I've downloaded the latest com4j jars and I'm trying to run through the most simple of their examples.

I'm on Windows 7 64 bit and using a 64 bit JVM.

When I run the command (from the com4j tutorial):

java -jar tlbimp.jar -o wsh -p test.wsh %WINDIR%\system32\wshom.ocx

I get:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: com4j-amd64.dll: %1 is

        at com4j.COM4J$3.run(COM4J.java:476)

The java code extracts "com4j-amd64.dll" next to the jar.
