The interface consists of a sharable image that exports a set of functions. The individual functions are described in Interface Functions. The sharable image is called libnatural.exe and is contained in the Natural bin directory. In a Natural Security environment the image name is libnatsec.exe.
When executing a program that uses the Natural Native Interface, the
Natural bin directory must be defined in the environment
variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or
LIBPATH respectively), so that the
calling program can locate the interface library and all dependent
libraries.
