Assuming you're working on a WebObjects application you'll most  
certainly have Info.plist settings...
Try these menu options:
+ Project > Set Active Target > Application Server
+ Project > Edit Active Target 'Application Server'

Now select:
- Info.plist Entries > Simple View > Pure Java Specific

Then click the (+) under Additional Properties adding
name:java.library.path value:/usr/local/lib

Also see point #5 here: <http://developer.apple.com/java/faq/ 
development.html>

HTH...
