Description

JRuby has its own Java implementation of this library, which uses our internal FFI library jnr-ffi to bind the appropriate functions. We will need to incorporate this version into the gem, so we can use it and users can include it in Gemfile.

Research direction

Start by locating the library's existing C implementation and the JRuby Java implementation that uses jnr-ffi. Then determine how the Java version should be incorporated into the gem and how users would include it in their Gemfile; done means JRuby users can use the implementation through the gem.
