I once (2016 ish) used a serial-port library for Java. Needed to be cross platform desktop app for Linux, Windows and Mac (in that order, all on x86/64). And it was. I have forgotten the name of the library project I included, but it included DLL binaries for the platforms we were targeting.

Not sure if this is still the case, but one of the Java Sqlite driver used something called NestedVM to run Sqlite in the JVM when a native library wasn't available. It worked by cross-compiling the code to mips, then transpiling the mips assembly to Java byte code. I can't remember if it bridged system calls or libc calls to Java for things like file IO.

That's a common solution. I do the same.
