How can I call JNI code from an EJB in JBoss

I am trying to call a native VOIP library from an EJB. However, on

System.loadLibrary(...)

JBoss shuts down: it says it received an ABRT and shuts down.

I know about JCA, but I'm looking for a more pragmatic solution. Is there a (low effort) way of calling a JNI function from an EJB?

(using JBoss EAP 6 + Java 6 on SLES 11 64bit)

------> Thanks for the helpful answers! I implemented a small external java app that encapsulates the jni stuff and offers a webservice.

I haven't done EJB for a few years but unless it has changed since, one of the EJB restrictions is that you can't call native code.

How I worked around this was from EJB, I could make a call to a RMI server and a JNI call can happen from there.
