First look for a java library that can help you implementing
the C library. There is quite a bit of free java code available.
Then rewrite your C library as jython code, evt. using the java
library(s) you found earlier.

Finally, only when you have a performance problem, rewrite
performance critical parts of your code in java.


Have fun,
