Thats wonderful! I'm definitely going to have a play with that :) -
any chance it could be added to pkgsrc?

I found it just needed a "GITHUB_PROJECT=jna" to get it to build for me

As an aside for a first test I tried using it with IntelliJ IDEA - to
get that to work I needed to adjust build.xml to set the jnidispatch
library release version to match the JNA library (5.2.0 rather than
6.0.0), then just add it to a jar as
com/sun/jna/netbsd-x86-64/libjnidispatch.so.

Thanks again!
