<li>This high-level interface using shadow classes is not the only way to handle C++ code.
<li>This high-level interface using proxy classes is not the only way to handle C++ code.
A low level interface using c functions to access member variables and member functions is the alternative SWIG

The abstraction of the underlying pointer by the java shadow classes far better fits the java programming paradigm.
