发明名称 Method and system for programming firmware over a computer network
摘要 A method and apparatus for programming a programmable hardware device of a local computer system that is connected to a network, uses a programming file that is resident on a remote system which is also connected to the same network. A method for facilitating such programming includes providing a Java-language program that is capable of accessing a programming file having data, providing a Java Native Interface (JNI) implementation that is capable of facilitating a sending of data from the programming file to the programmable hardware device, and providing a Java Native Interface that facilitates communication between the Java-language program and the JNI implementation. Another method for such programming by a user includes accessing a programming file having data and located on a computer system that is remote from the local system and connected to the local system through a network, using a Java program. The method also includes retrieving the data from the programming file and sending the retrieved data to the programmable hardware device, such that the retrieving and sending are facilitated by using a particular Java Native Interface (JNI) and a particular JNI implementation.
