How to add prefixes to jni dll function names

I have a jni dll that has functions being called from java. The problem is that this dll has all the java classes in the default package (in the dll "Java_classname_methodname"). It is impossible to get the source of this dll and it would take EXTREMELY long to rewrite. So I basically need to call the functions in this dll from java in a different package than default. I've tried for hours on end to rename the functions in the dll with a hex editor and several tools to modify the checksum and addresses in the dll but it's just too much for me because I have almost no experience with this. I would very much prefer this route, but I just don't have the proper tools or the know-how. So what I'm left with is trying to hardcode the package name in java. I tried using jna as described in this stack overflow post to do something like this:

Map options = new HashMap();

options.
    put(
        Library.OPTION_FUNCTION_MAPPER, 
        new StdCallFunctionMapper() {
            public String getFunctionName(NativeLibrary library, Method method) {
                method.setName(method.getName().replace("com.test.", "");
                return super.getFunctionName(library, method);
            }
        }
    );

Native.loadLibrary(..., ..., options);

But there is no setName in Method. Ideally I'd like to get this done without any extra libraries but I'm obviously not opposed to using something like jna. And before anyone asks, yes this is permitted by the library's usage license. Please don't tell me it's not possible because know that it's possible, just difficult. Whichever way it must be done I am willing to put in the work (either modifying dll or using java code with some external library). And by the way, I also need this done on .so and .dylib files eventually (not as important as dll). Thank you for your time.

So the corresponding Java class with the native methods wasn't in a package either.

Correct.

I've tried for hours on end to rename the functions in the dll with a hex editor and several tools to modify the checksum and addresses in the dll but it's just too much for me because I have almost no experience with this.

You may be able to alias the function names somehow, but it's been about 20 years since I practiced in this area.

No. There is no package name to hard-code. What you're left with is trying to call native methods in a class without a package from a class in a package, which since 1.4 is not possible.

What you need to to do is either:

1. It is possible to call the package-less Java native methods via reflection. So, you can write a wrapper class that does that, which lives in the package of your choice, and the rest of your code can call the wrapper.

Or

2. As follows:

   • Write another Java class in the package of your choice with the appropriate native methods.
   • Create an import library from the existing DLL.
   • Write another DLL and link it with this import library.
   • Load this new DLL from your Java code.
   • Have this DLL use the RegisterNatives method on initialization, to register the existing JNI entry points in the old DLL under the new native method names & signatures.
   • Use javah to get the required native method names and javap to get the required Java signatures. Don't try to guess them by hand.

Don't ask me how this maps to .so files.
