Was ist das? Java DLL?

DLL (Dynamic Link Library) files are shared code libraries used by Windows applications to access functionality without requiring the entire codebase to be included within each application. While "Java" specifically refers to a programming language and platform, it does not directly correspond to a category of DLL files. However, Java applications can interact with Windows through native methods that utilize DLLs. These DLLs may provide specific functionalities such as interfacing with hardware or accessing operating system features. Java itself operates on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), which abstracts many system-specific details including the underlying OS libraries, thus minimizing direct dependency on individual DLL files.
