Embed shared libs in Java Applets

Is it possible to embed linux shared libs (.so) in Java applets?

I know that I can call JNI code from applets (privileged only), but is it possible embed these libs inside the applet?

No. Natives should be inside the root path of a separate Jar. There should be separate Jars for OS X, *nix and Windows. Then use Java Web Start to deploy the lot and reference each Jar containing natives in an OS specific resource section of the JNLP launch file - so each OS only downloads the type of natives that it requires.
