There is no such thing as a dynamically linked library (DLL) in VxWorks (the operating system on the robot). DLLs are a Windows thing. VxWorks does support .so style dynamic libraries in exactly the same format as Linux. But using dynamic libraries also requires the use of real-time processes (RTPs, which look much like processes and threads in Linux) in VxWorks. Wind River has never released a board support package (BSP) for the FIRST robots with RTPs included/enabled (that I know of). FIRST robots use tasks in kernel space with no RTP support (thus no .so support).

Does anyone know if the Java-enabled kernel we get from Wind River has the JNI libraries included?
