EDIT: Disregard. I am wrong. Original below.

You can just load as a resource. We do this internally since much of network stack is C. But we use JNI because code is older than Java 22.

You made me search it again. And still I don't see how that's possible. `Runtime.load` requires a regular file with an absolute path[0].

Stackoverflow is full of "copy it into a temp file" solutions. ChatGPT keeps saying "sorry" but still insists on copying it into a temp file :)

Embarrassing of me to give you wrong answer. I went and checked my old code and:

     new FileOutputStream(tmpFile)

Apologies.
