 <p>Make sure that the class name string has the correct format.  JNI class
 names start with the package name and are separated with slashes,
 such as <code>java/lang/String</code>.  If you're looking up an array class,
 you need to start with the appropriate number of square brackets and
 must also wrap the class with 'L' and ';', so a one-dimensional array of

+used from JNI.
 
 <p>If the class name looks right, you could be running into a class loader
 issue.  <code>FindClass</code> wants to start the class search in the
 class loader associated with your code.  It examines the call stack,
 which will look something like:

-    dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method)</pre>
