I am interested in binding a c library that I have as source (that I have written) to Erlang. In Java I would use JNI. In Erlang I don't know. Can anyone point me at where the docs are for this? Especially a tutorial. Google has been unrevealing and i have been through hundreds of dead ends. </div>
